Senate Republicans are pushing for the Ethics Committee to examine the tactics Democrats employed in their effort to keep Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh off the bench.

“I have a lot of questions and I certainly think we need to get to the bottom of some of the antics that were used,” Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn, R-Texas, said Monday. Cornyn said the six-member, bipartisan Senate Ethics Committee or the 21-member Judiciary Committee could be employed to conduct the probe.
