Jeff Sessions: John Lewis and Senator Record

jeff sessions: In the second day of confirmation hearings, New Jersey Sen, according to The Chronicle Herald. Cory Booker, Sessions' colleague, and Rep. Jeff Sessions at times has shown hostility toward civil rights, making him unfit to be attorney general, as a 1986 letter from the widow of Martin Luther King Jr. surfaced strongly expressing opposition to the Alabama senator. John Lewis, D-Ga., who was beaten when he marched for civil rights in the 1960s, warned that Sessions could move the country backward if confirmed as Donald Trump's top law enforcement official. Senator Sessions' record does not speak to that desire, intention or will, Booker said, noting his opposition to overhauling the criminal justice system and his positions on other issues affecting minority groups. Booker said the arc of the universe does not just naturally curve toward justice, we must bend it, and the country needs an attorney general who is determined to bend it. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
