Wade With Supreme Court Nominee Brett Kavanaugh --- ## Transcript Mister Chairman. I'd like to be recognized to ask a question before we proceed. The committee received just last night, less than 15 hours ago, 42, 000 pages of documents that we have not had an opportunity to review or read or analyze. You are out of order I will proceed. Congresswoman We cannot possibly move forward mister chairman with this hearing. We have not been given the opportunity to have a meaningful hearing on this nominee. Chairman I extend a very warm welcome to judge Kavanaugh to his wife Ashley. Congressman Mister Chairman if we cannot be recognized I move to adjounre. Mister Chairman I move to adjourne. Chairman The American people need to hear directly from judge Kavanaugh [ APPLAUSE ] Mister chairman, I move to adjourn. [ APPLAUSE ] Mister chairman, we have been denied, we have been denied real access to the documents we need to advise and to send. Mister chairman, regular orders called. Which turns this hearing into a charade and mockery of our. Well- And Mister Chairman, I therefore move to adjourn this hearing. Okay. This is a mockery and a travesty of justice! This is an attack against justice and the lawful act! Cancel Brett Kavanaugh! Adjourn the hearing! [ INAUDIBLE ] Some assurance of confidentiality- [ INAUDIBLE ] A president could not expect to receive the full and frank submissons of facts and opinions upon which the effective discharge of his duties depends, end of quote. Mr. Chairman, I appeal to be recognized on your sense of decency and integrity Even the documents you have requested, Mr. Chairman, even the ones that you said, the limited documents you have requested, this committee has not received, and the documents, we have, you [ CROSSTALK ] should be transparent. This committee, sir, is a violation of even the values I've heard you talk about time and time again. The ideals that we should have, what is the rush? What are we trying to hide by not having the documents out front? What is the rush? What are we hiding by not letting those documents come out? Sir, this committee is a violation of the values that we as a committee have striven for; transparency. We are rushing through this process in a way that is unnecessary. And I appeal for the motion to at least be voted on. Mr. Chairman. At least let's have a vote because when we wrote you a letter on August 24, Senator. Asking to have a meeting on this issue, you denied us, Even the right to meet. So here we are, having a meeting, let's at least debate this issue, let's at least call this for a vote. Senator. I appeal to your sense of fairness and decency, your commitments that you've made to transparency. This violates what you have even said and called for sir. You've called for. Documents, you yourself, limited documents. We thought there should be more. We have not received the documents that you have even called for. So sir, based upon your own principles, your own values, I call for at least to have a debate or a vote on these issues, and not for us to rush through this process.
