Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee spurned efforts by their Democratic counterparts to compel the release of more documents related to Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s tenure working in the White House.

During the Senate Judiciary Committee’s meeting Thursday, several of the panel’s Democratic members made motions to subpoena documents and interviews related to Kavanaugh. Each of their motions, however, were defeated in party-line votes.
