Votes on the Supreme Court Nomination of Judge Neil Gorsuch

Due to Judge Gorsuch’s extreme judicial philosophy and dangerous record on reproductive health, Planned Parenthood scored the procedural vote and also opposed the final confirmation of Judge Gorsuch. Read more on Gorsuch’s hostile record on reproductive health here. Judge Gorsuch was only confirmed after Senate leadership forced through changes to long-standing Senate rules that previously required 60 votes for a Supreme Court nominee to now only require 51 votes.
