Bill Pryor On Senate Judiciary Committee Docket This Week

Senator Jeff Sessions (R. - Alabama) continues to fight the good fight on Pryor's behalf.
"I remain hopeful," said Sen. Jeff Sessions, an Alabama Republican who is Pryor's most outspoken supporter on the Judiciary Committee. "It's not going to be easy to get senators to change their votes. In fact, it's seldom done. But there is a good basis for it on Bill's nomination."

Sessions has been distributing to colleagues a packet of information that he says details Pryor's decisions since he has been on the bench, proving he isn't the ultraconservative foes have made him out to be. (AP)
