WASHINGTON – Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) issued the following statement Friday after the Senate Judiciary Committee voted to favorably recommend the confirmation of Supreme Court nominee Judge Kavanaugh.

“The Senate Judiciary Committee completed a professional investigation of Dr. Ford’s allegation this week. But since some of my colleagues believe one more week of FBI investigation will bring us closer to truth I support that investigation and I look forward to voting for Judge Kavanaugh soon.”
