Senate Confirms Judge Who Attacked Roe v. Wade, Called Being Transgender 'A Delusion'
WASHINGTON ― The Senate voted Wednesday to confirm Matthew Kacsmaryk to a lifetime federal judgeship despite his record of hostility toward LGBTQ rights and abortion rights.
The Senate voted 52-46 to put Kacsmaryk, 42, onto the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas. Every Democrat present voted no. Every Republican present but one, Susan Collins (Maine), voted yes.
The full vote tally is here.
LGBTQ and reproductive rights groups have been protesting Kacsmaryk’s nomination for more than a year because of his extreme views on both fronts. Last week, dozens of human rights groups signed a letter opposing him.
