Karlan quotes Brett Kavanaugh in testimony

Pamela Karlan of Stanford Law School quoted conservative Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh during her testimony in front of the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday. "'It is fundamental to the definition of our national political community that foreign citizens do not have a constitutional right to participate in, and thus may be excluded from, activities of a democratic self-government,'" Karlan said, quoting Kavanaugh. "... Then-Judge, now Justice, Brett Kavanaugh was so correct in seeing this that the Supreme Court … summarily affirmed … that it's constitutional to keep foreigners out of our election process."
