"Kavanaugh Defends His Environmental Record" [1]

"Environmental issues got aired early during today's Senate hearing on Brett Kavanaugh, President Trump's nominee to the Supreme Court.

Kavanaugh defended his record, noting a number of times he ruled in favor of environmental regulations during his 12 years on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.

"In environmental cases, some cases I've ruled against environmentalist interests, and in many cases I've ruled for environmentalist interests," he said."
