Excerpted:
Because it is a “biased and ideologically captured institution,” the senators assert the ABA has — in legal parlance — no standing in advising Congress, particularly in its ratings on judicial nominees and pending legislation. The lawmakers also are calling on the president and the Department of Justice “to remove the ABA from the judicial nomination process entirely.”
As the letter notes, for more than 70 years the ABA has played a role in rating judicial nominees, evaluating candidates as “Qualified or Not Qualified.”
“As we saw during the Biden Administration, the ABA’s ratings were little more than political endorsements for the most radical, left wing partisans,” the senators argue. “The ABA endorsed patently unqualified judicial nominees as ‘Qualified’ or ‘Well Qualified’ time and time again—including nominees that were so partisan that even the Democrat majority in the Senate could not confirm them.”
