As President Biden narrows his choice for the next Supreme Court Justice, the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee is dismissing Republicans objections to the President saying he will only nominate a black woman. Republicans are calling it an affirmative action quota pick or saying President Biden should only pick the most qualified candidate regardless of race or gender. Appearing on ABC’s This Week, Illinois Senator Dick Durbin says Biden is following the words and actions of past Presidents.

Durbin says his committee will be ready to act quickly with hearings once the pick has been made.
