Sen. Roger Wicker says Biden's Supreme Court nom will be a ‘beneficiary’ of affirmative action
Fox News
Mississippi Republican Sen. Roger Wicker said the first Black woman to sit on the Supreme Court will be a "beneficiary" of affirmative action – and predicted President Biden's pick "will probably not get a single Republican vote."
"The irony is that the Supreme Court is at the very time hearing cases about this sort of affirmative racial discrimination while adding someone who is the beneficiary of this sort of quota," Wicker said during an interview with host Paul Gallo on SuperTalk Mississippi Radio, according to the Mississippi Free Press.
The Supreme Court Monday agreed to take up affirmative action cases involving college admissions at Harvard University and the University of North Carolina.
