Republican senator to back Ketanji Brown Jackson for Supreme Court post
US senator Susan Collins has said she will vote to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson, giving Democrats at least one Republican vote and all but assuring that Ms Jackson will become the first black woman on the Supreme Court.
Ms Collins said in a statement that she met Ms Jackson a second time after four days of hearings last week and decided “she possesses the experience, qualifications and integrity to serve as an associate justice on the Supreme Court”.
