"Tomorrow, Senate Republicans will rubber stamp Lawrence VanDyke for a lifetime appointment to serve as a 9th Circuit judge. Mr. VanDyke's extreme statements on LGBTQ rights, women's reproductive rights, & gun safety make him entirely unfit for this appointment. #StopVanDyke"

"Mr. VanDyke has said that he believes there is "ample reason for concern that same-sex marriage will hurt families, & consequentially children and society" and refused to tell Senate Judiciary Committee members whether he believed same-sex couples can effectively raise children."

"Radical, unqualified judges like Mr. VanDyke will do untold damage to our federal judiciary. I will vote against Mr. VanDyke's confirmation tomorrow and hope that some of my Republican colleagues will join me and @SenateDems to #StopVanDyke."
