Sen. Hatch: Grilling Won’t Stop Sessions Confirmation

(Washington, DC) — Senator Orrin Hatch says the Democrats’ grilling of attorney general nominee Jeff Sessions won’t be enough to stop his confirmation. In the first day of Sessions’s confirmation hearings on Capitol Hill, he was asked if he ever supported the Ku Klux Klan. Hatch called the line of questioning partisan handwringing. He said his Democrat colleagues, quote, “make up one thing after another to create a caricature that bears no resemblance to the nominee.”
