Judicial Nominations

“Congratulations to Steve Clark on his confirmation to the federal bench in St. Louis,” Senator Hawley said. “I will always fight for principled, constitutionalist judges for our federal judiciary.”

Today Senator Josh Hawley sent a letter to Neomi Rao outlining his questions about her judicial philosophy and approach to constitutional law. Senator Hawley has additional questions about Rao’s views on substantive due process – the doctrine that activist judges often rely on to justify making policy from the bench.
