Sen. Dean Heller plans to oppose a judicial nominee pushed by his colleague, Harry Reid, and whose law firm gave $150,000 to a PAC linked to the majority leader.
Heller will vote against Jennifer Dorsey, using the this story by the Review-Journal's Steve Tetreault as the reason. here's the statement I obtained from Heller:
“I raised my concerns with Jennifer Dorsey before she came before the Judiciary Committee. I hoped that allowing the Judiciary Committee to proceed would clarify these issues so I could support her with no reservations. Unfortunately, I remain uncomfortable with the relationship between the timing and amount of financial contributions made and this nomination, which is why I intend to oppose the nomination on the Senate floor.”
