Aug. 16, 2018
Tweet - "Meanwhile, the small % of docs the Judiciary Committee will get to see are being pre-screened by a GOP political operative who worked for Kavanaugh in the Bush admin and currently represents Steve Bannon, Reince Priebus and Don McGahn. If this seems shady, it's because it is."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 16, 2018
Tweet - "The GOP is deliberately withholding the entire record of Judge Kavanaugh's 3 years as Staff Secretary-- the most senior position he held in the Bush Admin & a job Kavanaugh himself said was "formative" & "instructive" as preparation for being a judge"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 16, 2018
Tweet - "Republicans announced #SCOTUS hearings will begin on Sept 4th. Let's recap how the Senate GOP's blatant and historic obstruction of Judge Kavanaugh's record is denying both the Senate & the American people access to critical information about a potential Supreme Court justice."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 15, 2018
Tweet - "Republicans used to demand transparency for SCOTUS noms. Now they're blocking nearly all of Judge Kavanaugh's records from public release and trying to rush through his nomination. What are Republicans hiding? #ReleaseTheRecords"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 15, 2018
Meng Introduces Proposed Constitutional Amendment to Lower the Voting Age in America to 16 Years Old
Rep. Grace Meng
Aug. 14, 2018
Tweet - "I heard from more than 120 orgs urging the Senate to consider #WhatsAtStake in our health care system w/ the Kavanaugh #SCOTUS nomination. We must protect pre-existing condition protections, access to contraception, & other important health care rights. https://familiesusa.org/sites/default/files/documents/Sign-On_SCOTUS_Health_Care_Stakes_8-14-18.pdf "
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 12, 2018
Tweet - "If the tiny portion of Judge Kavanaugh's record that has been made public seems unrevealing, it's because those docs have been cherry-picked by his former deputy, a long-time political operative. Congress--and the public--still have seen no records from the National Archives. 1/2"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 10, 2018
CNN "The Situation Room" - Transcript: Interview With New York Congressman Hakeem Jeffries
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries
Aug. 10, 2018
Tweet - "Republicans' mad rush to hold this hearing after unilaterally deciding to block nearly all of Judge Kavanaugh's records from public release is further evidence they are hiding important information from the American people, & continues to raise the question, #WhatAreTheyHiding?"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 9, 2018
MSNBC "All in with Chris Hayes" - Transcript: Interview with Rep. Hakeem Jeffries
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries
Aug. 9, 2018
Tweet - "Every day, Republican obstruction of Kavanaugh's record gets worse and worse. Not only is a massively conflicted Republican lawyer, who previously worked for Judge Kavanaugh, cherry-picking what documents the Senate Judiciary Committee can see... 1/2"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 7, 2018
CNN "The Situation Room" - Transcript: Interview With New York Congressman Jerrold Nadler
Rep. Jerry Nadler
Aug. 7, 2018
Tweet - "And your process for getting the tiny % of Kavanaugh's WH documents you have actually requested is being led by a lawyer who not only has a partisan history--the American people learned this weekend that he used to report to Kavanaugh in the White House!"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 7, 2018
Tweet - "Chairman Grassley, as you will recall, I opposed Judge Kavanaugh's nomination to the DC Circuit in 2006 because I believed he was a political operative not suited for the bench. Given what we have learned since that time, I still believe that today."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 7, 2018
Tweet - "Judge Kavanaugh himself said his time as Staff Secretary was "formative" & "instructive" to him as a judge--and Republicans won't agree to even review those docs."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 6, 2018
Tweet - "53 years after the passage of the #VotingRightsAct, our rights are under attack. In 2013, #SCOTUS decided 5-4 to strip critical protections of Section 5 of the VRA. With the Kavanuagh nomination, even more Americans could be at risk of being disenfranchised. #WhatsAtStake"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 6, 2018

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand
Aug. 4, 2018
Tweet - "We learned yesterday that the Republican operative who is screening Judge Kavanaugh's records actually worked for him in the White House--and didn't disclose it to anyone. An unbelievable conflict of interest. #WhatAreTheyHiding"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 3, 2018
Tweet - "Republicans are making an unprecedented effort to keep hidden Judge Kavanaugh's records from the American public, and even the large majority of Senators. This is a new and astonishing level of secrecy. What are they hiding? #WhatsAtStake"

Interior, Environment, Financial Services, and General Government Appropriations Act, 2019
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 1, 2018
Tweet - "What is @SenateGOP trying to hide in Kavanaugh's record? To go to such lengths to deny simple documents really makes people ask: what are they hiding? What are they afraid of? Why can't we have impartial access to docs as we did for Justices Kagan and Sotomayor? #WhatsAtStake"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Aug. 1, 2018
Tweet - "The Mueller-Rosenstein investigation is making progress at record speed: 35 indictments, 5 guilty pleas & Trump's campaign chairman on trial. @realDonaldTrump's statements this morning are just another attempt to make the American people look at his latest shiny object."
