Sen. Pat Roberts on Filibusters

By AndrewHyman Comments () / Email this page » / Leave a comment »

Senator Roberts of Kansas issued a statement today, clarifying his position on judicial filibusters. Here's how the statement concludes:

My hope is that Senate leaders can work something out and end the stalemate that has denied President BushÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s judicial nominees an up-or-down vote. But if thatÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s not the case, as I have stated, I would vote with Majority Leader Frist to end the judicial filibuster.

So, Senator Roberts is clearly with the GOP leadership on this. Roberts was on our list of seven undecided GOP Senators.
