Vote Data for Caitlin Halligan Nomination (112th Congress)


Date: December 6, 2011

Subject: Caitlin Halligan Nomination

Description: Invoking cloture on the nomination of Caitlin Halligan for the Disctrict of Columbia Circuit Court. Halligan had shown her opposition to Second Amendment rights by working to make gun manufacturers liable for actions by gun owners. This seat, once held by Chief Justice John Roberts, had been left vacant by the refusal of Senate Democrats to vote on nominees put forward by George W. Bush. ACU opposed this nomination and opposed the cloture motion which required 60 votes to pass.

Result: Cloture Motion Rejected, 54-45

Names ordered: By yea/nay       Order alphabetically       Order by party       Order by state
