U.S. Chamber of Commerce Takes a Pass on Kagan Nomination
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce will not take a position on the nomination of Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court, saying that “our internal endorsement process did not generate a clear consensus that would support either a positive or negative view on her nomination.” The Chamber has endorsed every Supreme Court nominee since it began reviewing high court picks in 1990. A former chief counsel to the Senate Judiciary Committee said he doesn’t believe the Chamber’s decision will affect the Senate vote on Kagan.
