NYS Bar Association and ABA call for FBI investigation into Kavanaugh
Yale Law School thinks FBI investigation is necessary
During his testimony on Thursday, U.S. Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh cited his “well-qualified” endorsement from the American Bar Association (ABA). However, just a few hours after the first day of hearings wrapped up, the ABA issued a call for the FBI to investigate allegations of sexual assault by the nominee.
On Friday, the New York State Bar Association joined in that call.
In a letter signed by ABA President Robert M. Carlson, the association called for a background check as necessary.
