Based on what I heard — and didn't hear — from Judge #Kavanaugh at his hearings, and having reviewed his writings and record as a judge, I believe any reasonable person would have cause to be concerned, even fearful, of his confirmation to the Supreme Court.

I will vote no.

My decision is based on:

1) his judicial track record
2) his equivocation on whether presidents should be investigated while in office, even though he investigated President Bill Clinton for Independent Counsel Ken Starr, and
3) what little we have seen of his White House record

Further, this whole process has been outrageous.

My request to meet with Judge #Kavanaugh before the hearings began was denied by the White House. I joined @JudiciaryDems in requesting a modest postponement so I had adequate time to review his full record – that was also denied.

The 42,000-page document dump the night before the hearings began was an especially egregious display of contempt for the constitutional process. Even now, much of #Kavanaugh's record has not been provided to the Senate.

This confirmation process is a turning point in American history. I urge all my colleagues to think carefully, before they cast their vote, about the future of our nation. I have. And that is why I must vote no. #WhatsAtStake
