WASHINGTON – U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) said this after voting to confirm Michael Brennan as a judge for the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit:

“Michael Brennan has bipartisan support from the Wisconsin legal community and I am confident he will make an excellent circuit court judge. Unfortunately, Senator Baldwin joined all her Democrat colleagues and turned Brennan’s confirmation into a highly partisan process.  Fortunately, their partisan effort failed and I am excited Wisconsin will be represented on the Seventh Circuit by a smart, capable judge who will apply the law as written.”
