McCain's commitment to the Judiciary
The North Dakota Republican Party commends Senator John McCain’s judicial philosophy and vision for the federal judiciary.
The next President will have the opportunity to nominate hundreds of men and women to the courts – the effects of which will last for many years. To uphold Republican ideals, it’s important that these judges have a proven record of judicial restraint to combat the judicial activism that currently is weakening our federal judiciary.
From the Supreme Court to lower courts, John McCain’s conservative leadership in nominating the right judges will bring about much-needed change to counteract judges who legislate from the bench and distort the Constitution.
