George Stephanopoulos interviews Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, on"This Week."Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said while she welcomes diversity on the Supreme Court, President Joe Biden's handling of replacing retiring Justice Stephen Breyer so far"has been clumsy at best.""I would welcome the appointment of a Black female to the court," the Republican senator told ABC"This Week" anchor George Stephanopoulos on Sunday.
"Actually, this isn't exactly the same. I’ve looked at what was done in both cases. And what President Biden did was as a candidate, make this pledge. And that helped politicize the entire nomination process," Collins responded."What President Reagan said is, as one of his Supreme Court justices, he would like to appoint a woman. And he appointed a highly qualified one in Sandra Day O'Connor.
"I did not agree with that decision, but once that precedent was established and given how close the death of the Supreme Court justice was to when the appointment was made of Justice Barrett," she added."I felt that it was -- should have been up to the next president to make the decision." Collins, who is known for her commitment to bipartisanship, was also asked about efforts to reform the Electoral Count Act since she is leading a bipartisan working group of 16 senators to do so.
