Crapo, Risch Defend Secrecy

U.S. Sens. Mike Crapo and Jim Risch have made the following statement on their selection process as they work to nominate the next U.S. District Judge for Idaho: “Several news outlets have inquired about the selection of a U.S. District Judge for Idaho. We want a confidential process and applicants have also requested a confidential process.  Men and women, sitting judges and attorneys, are being interviewed. The process is ongoing. The White House will make the final selection with the Senate voting on confirmation of the nomination.”

Question: Are you buying what our U.S. senators are selling?
