WASHINGTON — The American Energy Alliance (AEA) applauds President Donald Trump’s nomination of Judge Neil Gorsuch to fill Justice Antonin Scalia’s seat on the U.S. Supreme Court. AEA President Thomas Pyle issued the following statement in support of Judge Gorsuch’s nomination:
“President Trump has made another outstanding decision by nominating Judge Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. Throughout his career Judge Gorsuch has displayed great respect for the separation of powers and a firm adherence to the Constitution. He has an impeccable record of sound legal opinions and is an outspoken critic of the doctrine of Chevron Deference, which has placed far too much power in unelected and unaccountable federal bureaucrats. Judge Gorsuch’s belief that the Constitution should be interpreted as written is greatly needed after years of excessive regulation and increased power in the executive branch. AEA urges members of the U.S. Senate to honor Justice Scalia’s legacy and stand up for families across the nation by supporting the nomination of Judge Neil Gorsuch.”
