U.S. Senator Steve Daines has criticized President Biden's nomination of Danna Jackson as Nominee for the United States District Court for the District of Montana. In a statement, Senator Daines expressed his concerns about the nomination process and the potential impact on the state of Montana.

Senator Daines raised issues with the judicial system in Montana, stating, "Federal judges in Montana are crushing our way of life because they legislate from the bench. Montanans want judges who will bring balance to our courts and uphold the Constitution." He emphasized the importance of having judges who prioritize fairness and adherence to the Constitution.

Furthermore, Senator Daines highlighted his disappointment with the lack of consultation from President Biden regarding the nomination. He stated, "Unfortunately, President Biden failed to seriously consult with me prior to making this nomination. This is inexcusable and a missed opportunity." The Senator expressed his belief that consultation with relevant stakeholders is crucial in the nomination process.

Looking ahead, Senator Daines indicated that he would be conducting a thorough review of Danna Jackson's background and record to assess her suitability for the position. He remarked, "I look forward to reviewing Ms. Jackson’s background and record to evaluate if this nomination is the right fit for Montana." This suggests that the Senator will carefully consider the nominee's qualifications and alignment with the values of the state.

The nomination of Danna Jackson for the United States District Court for the District of Montana has sparked debate and scrutiny, with Senator Daines voicing his reservations about the process and the nominee. As the evaluation process unfolds, the decision on Ms. Jackson's suitability for the role will be closely watched by stakeholders in Montana.
