Conservative group thanks Grassley for blocking Obama SCOTUS pick

The Judicial Crisis Network will spend $175,000 on a 10-day TV and digital ad campaign thanking Iowa Sen. Chuck Grassley for “giving the people a voice in the future direction of the Supreme Court of the United States based on election results.”

The right-leaning Judicial Crisis Network said this is the first ad in a series it will roll out regarding the Supreme Court in the next few months as the Senate prepares to consider President-elect Trump’s potential nominee to replace the late Justice Antonin Scalia. The new ad campaign thanks Grassley for helping halt the confirmation of Merrick Garland, President Obama’s pending nominee to the court.
