Sen Ed Markey (D-MA) also refusing to meet with Kavanaugh

Ed Markey ✔ @SenMarkey

I will not take a meeting with Brett Kavanaugh. He has been nominated by someone implicated, and all but named as a co-conspirator, in federal crimes.

His nomination is tainted and should be considered illegitimate.

slowing the process down, otherwise I hope the party would stick together and obstruct however they can.
