The AFL-CIO opposes the nomination of Eric Murphy to serve on the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, on both substantive and procedural grounds. Our nation deserves judges who treat all Americans fairly and demonstrate respect for democratic values. Mr. Murphy’s record leads us to the conclusion that he would not be such a judge. Nevertheless, he was confirmed on March 7, 2019.
