HAMMER: Judicial Crisis Network’s Open Attack On Sen. Josh Hawley Is Shameful

It turns out that Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) has some questions about Neomi Rao.

Rao is the current Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs — making her the Trump Administration’s de facto “regulatory czar” — who is the White House’s official nominee tapped to fill Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s vacated seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. The D.C. Circuit, due to its administrative law-heavy docket and its position in the nation’s capital, is often considered to be the second most prestigious court in the country after the U.S. Supreme Court. In addition to Kavanaugh, Chief Justice John Roberts, Justice Clarence Thomas, and the late Justice Antonin Scalia were all tapped to the Supreme Court from their respective perches on the D.C. Circuit.
