SistaCallie: Neil Gorsuch: Who is he? Bio, facts, background and political views
By JOSH GERSTEIN 01/31/17 12:56 PM EST Updated 01/31/17 09:07 PM EST
Judge Neil Gorsuch, 49, is President Donald Trump's choice to fill the Supreme Court seat vacated a year ago by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia.
Gorsuch has the typical pedigree of a high court justice. He graduated from Columbia, Harvard and Oxford, clerked for two Supreme Court justices and did a stint at the Department of Justice.
He attended Harvard Law with former President Barack Obama. On Tuesday, Obama's former ethics czar, Norm Eisen, another classmate, tweeted: "Hearing rumors Trump's likely Supreme Court pick is Neil Gorsuch, my (and President Obama's!) 1991 Harvard Law classmate.If so, a great guy!"
Since 2006, he has served on the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, in Colorado. He is an outdoorsman who fishes, hunts and skis. On the court, conservatives hope he will become the intellectual heir to Scalia, long the outspoken leader of the conservative bloc.
In a ruling last August in an immigration case, Gorsuch questioned the wisdom of that doctrine, arguing that the meaning of the law is for judges to decide, not federal bureaucrats.
“Where in all this does a court interpret the law and say what it is?” Gorsuch asked in an extended digression on the subject. “When does a court independently decide what the statute means and whether it has or has not vested a legal right in a person? Where Chevron applies that job seems to have gone extinct.”
Other rulings give conservatives confidence that Gorsuch is a strong supporter of religious freedom rights. Last September, he joined a dissent arguing that requirements for contraception coverage in Obamacare ran roughshod over the rights of religious non-profits.
Gorsuch also wrote a 2000 law journal article and a 2006 book arguing strongly against assisted-suicide laws. The practice of allowing the terminally ill to end their lives is now legal in six states and is on the verge of being legalized in Washington, D.C.
While Gorsuch has a longer Washington resume than other judges considered by Trump, his family’s experience in the city was a searing one.
Gorsuch’s mother, Anne Burford Gorsuch, ran the Environmental Protection Agency at the outset of the Reagan administration. She was forced to resign in 1983, facing a criminal investigation and a House contempt of Congress citation over records related to alleged political favoritism in toxic-waste cleanups. She maintained her innocence and was never charged. His mother died in 2004.

Understandably.. however, he believes in limited terms for judges and others politicians, and I also agree with this... 10 years should be the limited time for THE PRESIDENT AND ALL POLITICIANS... give someone else a chance especially the young men and women coming up..... this is going to be a problem with both sides, as there are Repubs and Demos who have been in office for a thousand years and need to GO! "roll:
What's going to give Trump, the Rebups and Demos, hell is that Judge Neil does not agree with foolishness, and will not tolerate it before the courts... in the court system he is rather balanced and does not play gaes or politics... that's going to shut up the foolishness from many of mouths on the Repubs and Demos side of the benches
..he's really fair in his Colorado rulings and political writings..What you need to know about Colorado judge Neil Gorsuch, Donald Trump’s pick for the Supreme Court

It appears that some liberals are in favor and wanting to encourage others to back Gorsuch as SC Judge...Why Liberals Should Back Neil Gorsuch
"The Denver Post encouraged the president to nominate Judge Gorsuch in part because “a justice who does his best to interpret the Constitution or statute and apply the law of the land without prejudice could go far to restore faith in the highest court of the land.”"
I can see the radical lefties already getting that confused look upon their faces.
"Should we protest Trump's Supreme Court pick or...?!?!"
"Soros, what we do? What we do???"

Senate GOP Gives Trump a Much-Needed Win With Supreme Court Vote
by Laura Litvan
April 7, 2017, 10:57 AM CDT April 7, 2017, 12:41 PM CDT
Senate Confirms Gorsuch to Fill Supreme Court Vacancy
The Senate handed President Donald Trump his biggest victory so far, confirming Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch after Republicans muscled past Democratic opposition with a unilateral rule change that may wind up poisoning the debate over the president’s agenda in Congress.
With Vice President Mike Pence in the presiding officer’s chair, the Senate voted 54-45 to confirm Gorsuch who, at age 49, is likely to help shape the court for decades to come. Trump is counting on him to reinstate a conservative-leaning 5-4 court under Chief Justice John Roberts.
Trump, in a statement, praised Gorsuch for "his judicial temperament, exceptional intellect, unparalleled integrity and record of independence."
Gorsuch will be sworn in Monday with a private ceremony at the court to be followed by a public oath-taking at the White House, the court said in a statement. Roberts will administer the oath at the court, and Justice Anthony Kennedy will preside at the White House. Gorsuch was a law clerk to Kennedy at the court during the mid-1990s.
“He has sterling credentials, an excellent record and an ideal judicial temperament. He has the independence of mind for fairness,” Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said on the Senate floor Friday before the vote.
Democrats say Gorsuch favored corporations over working Americans as a federal appellate judge.

Besides climate change, Al Gore is ok in my book. Because of him, I got gazillions of federal bucks for public air quality outreach programs in Ohio that I was involved with.

With the confirmation of Gorsuch, THE reason for voting for Trump over Clinton has been fulfilled.
A man who interprets the law is now in versus the activist judge we would've gotten with Hillary. Its a really, really good day for the U.S.
Cry some more Hillary, cry some more.
To celebrate, I may just go buy another AR-15 that I've had my eye on....along with about 5 30rd mags

I actually e-mailed my US representative and Senators in favor of Gorsuch. The alternative would have been much worse. A Mormon. I lived in the Denver, Colorado area for over 10 years and it is a good place to grow up. Let's see if he does what he says he will do. Represent the American People not Donald Trump.

Judge Neil Gorsuch, 49, is President Donald Trump's choice to fill the Supreme Court seat vacated a year ago by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia.
Gorsuch has the typical pedigree of a high court justice. He graduated from Columbia, Harvard and Oxford, clerked for two Supreme Court justices and did a stint at the Department of Justice.
He attended Harvard Law with former President Barack Obama. On Tuesday, Obama's former ethics czar, Norm Eisen, another classmate, tweeted: "Hearing rumors Trump's likely Supreme Court pick is Neil Gorsuch, my (and President Obama's!) 1991 Harvard Law classmate.If so, a great guy!"
Since 2006, he has served on the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals, in Colorado. He is an outdoorsman who fishes, hunts and skis. On the court, conservatives hope he will become the intellectual heir to Scalia, long the outspoken leader of the conservative bloc.
“The real appeal of Gorsuch nomination is he’s likely to be the most effective conservative nominee in terms of winning over Anthony Kennedy and forging conservative decisions on the court,” said Jeffrey Rosen of the National Constitution Center. “He’s unusual for his memorable writing style, the depth of his reading and his willingness to rethink constitutional principles from the ground up. Like Justice Scalia, he sometimes reaches results that favor liberals when he thinks the history or text of the Constitution or the law require it, especially in areas like criminal law or the rights of religious minorities, but unlike Scalia he’s less willing to defer to regulations and might be more willing to second-guess Trump’s regulatory decision.”
Gorsuch is a favorite of legal conservatives because he has sharply questioned a three-decade old legal precedent that many on the right believe has given too much power to the regulatory state. The landmark 1984 Supreme Court ruling involving the Chevron oil company held that courts should defer to federal agencies’ reasonable interpretations of ambiguous federal laws.
In a ruling last August in an immigration case, Gorsuch questioned the wisdom of that doctrine, arguing that the meaning of the law is for judges to decide, not federal bureaucrats.
“Where in all this does a court interpret the law and say what it is?” Gorsuch asked in an extended digression on the subject. “When does a court independently decide what the statute means and whether it has or has not vested a legal right in a person? Where Chevron applies that job seems to have gone extinct.”
Other rulings give conservatives confidence that Gorsuch is a strong supporter of religious freedom rights. Last September, he joined a dissent arguing that requirements for contraception coverage in Obamacare ran roughshod over the rights of religious non-profits.
Gorsuch also wrote a 2000 law journal article and a 2006 book arguing strongly against assisted-suicide laws. The practice of allowing the terminally ill to end their lives is now legal in six states and is on the verge of being legalized in Washington, D.C.
While Gorsuch has a longer Washington resume than other judges considered by Trump, his family’s experience in the city was a searing one.
