The Supreme Court Nominations Set
The Supreme Court of the U.S. Hearings and Reports on Successful and Unsuccessful Nominations of Supreme Court Justice by the Senate Judiciary Committee features full-text searching, beginning with three volumes dedicated to the controversial confirmation of Louis Brandeis, the first nominee subject to public hearings. This ongoing set is considered to be the definitive documentary history of the nominations and confirmation process of both successful and unsuccessful nominations through Brett Kavanaugh. Coverage for Neil Gorsuch is now complete, and additional Kavanaugh volumes will be added as soon as they become available.
Each nomination includes relevant materials, such as:
- Confirmation hearing and transcript on the nomination
- Senate Judiciary Committee vote on the nomination
- Memoranda drafted
- Presidential statements
- Resignation announcements
