Open letter to Sen. Lisa Murkowski

The Greater Alaska Chapter of the Association of Mature American Citizens fully supports President Trump in his pick of Brett Kavanaugh for the US Supreme Court.

You have said, directly to me via letter that you have to support the President in his nominee's. Your voting record shows that, by voting for cloture and voting for the nominees (Obama era), The exception was at least one of Obama's Supreme Court nominee where you voted for cloture, then voted against the nominee to “say” you voted against. That bit, along with other slight of the hand votes have not escaped us. If memory is correct, you voted against at least one President Trump nominee for cabinet post.

We are sadly very aware of your support of Planned Parenthood and supporting their funding. Since AMAC is Pro-Life, we are equally aware of your pro-choice/pro-Roe v Wade stance, A major reason you and Senator Collins are expected to vote against President Trump's nominee (per news media reports) is because you and Collins, along with the extreme left Democrats of the Senate, want to make this nominee process about Roe v Wade, not about appointing a US Supreme Court Justice that will stand for the Constitution as written vs a “living breathing Constitution and Bill of Rights.

Of interest is Senator Dick Durbins comments to his fellow Democrats up for re-election, to fall on their swords and vote against Judge Kavanaugh. I am sure that sentiment extends to you and Senator Collins. Do so at your own political peril, because 4,500 Alaskan members of AMAC, their spouses, their adult children and their friends will remember, along with your vote against repeal/replace of Obamacare!

The Greater Alaska Chapter of AMAC demands your YES vote for the Presidents' nominee, Brett Kavanaugh, period. We are happy that you voted for Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch who is also a strong Constitutionalists and originalist. We fully expect you to do the same with this Brett Kavanaugh!

Mike Coons, Mat-Su Valley
