Oppose Bove's Concerning Nomination to Appellate Court

The nominee's evasive responses and concerning allegations surrounding his conduct at the Justice Department raise serious doubts about his fitness for a lifetime appointment to the federal appellate bench. It is deeply troubling that he refused to directly answer whether a former president could defy term limits, as well as questions about the legitimacy of the 2020 election and the January 6th insurrection. His alleged suggestion that the DOJ could disregard court orders is an egregious breach of ethical duties that strikes at the core of the rule of law. A judicial nominee must demonstrate steadfast commitment to upholding the Constitution and respect for the impartial administration of justice. Bove's concerning record casts legitimate doubt on whether he possesses the independence, integrity and judgment to serve as a fair and impartial judge. I urge you to oppose his nomination and insist on nominees who will safeguard the public's faith in our judicial system.
