Collins Calls For Ford And Kavanaugh To Testify Before Judiciary Committee

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), who has been reticent about how she will vote on Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, is now calling for Kavanaugh and his accuser, professor Christine Blasey Ford, to testify about the alleged incident of sexual assault before the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Collins does not sit on the committee, but is a crucially important swing vote who, with one other Republican, could sink Kavanaugh’s confirmation assuming that Democrats hold together to all vote against him.
