Concerned Women for America will host a press conference in support of Supreme Court nominee Judge Samuel Alito Jan. 5 at the National Press Club’s First Amendment Lounge at 10 a.m.
In a press release, the organization describes Alito as “a qualified candidate who fulfills the president’s promise of nominating a judge who will strictly interpret the Constitution and not legislate from the bench.
“Alito possesses the capability, character and commitment to the law America needs in a Supreme Court justice, and he deserves a swift and fair confirmation,” it says.
Ten women, representing eight organizations, will moderate the press conference.
The Senate Hearings for the confirmation of Judge Alito as associate judge at the United States Supreme court will start next monday, January 9.
