Judge Amy Coney Barrett Has been confirmed to the Supreme Court. By a vote of 52-48, Coney completed the Senate confirmation process.
Vice President Mike Pence said on Twitter, “Thank You to @senatemajldr and all of the 52 @SenateGOP for Voting to Confirm the Nomination of Amy Coney Barrett of Indiana to @Scotus! Great Vote! Great Day for America!”
Kamal Harris said, “Today Republicans denied the will of the American people by confirming a Supreme Court justice through an illegitimate process—all in their effort to gut the Affordable Care Act and strip health care from millions with pre-existing conditions. We won’t forget this.”
President Trump is participating in the swearing in ceremony live now, at the White House.
