Americans deserve to know about Roberts
Though Bush doesn’t seem to think that we should have access to information on Roberts, it’s more than a little important that Americans know all they can on a potential Supreme Court justice.
That’s why NARAL Pro-Choice America filed a formal request with the White House asking for records of contacts between President Bush or other administration officials and radical right organizations that have supported Roberts. We deserve to know whether these groups had an undue influence on the decision to nominate Roberts.
Nancy Keenan, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America, said: “President Bush is asking the Senate to confirm John Roberts to serve a lifetime appointment in a position in which he will have a profound impact on the lives of ordinary Americans. We are filing this request because the public has a right to the same information regarding a potential Supreme Court Justice as representatives of ideological pressure groups.”
