Better Markets-

With the Senate Judiciary Committee poised to open hearings to consider Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, Better Markets is issuing a report examining his record on economic and financial cases.  The detailed report finds that Judge Kavanaugh wants to cut back on investor protections and limit agency authority, consistently favoring business interests over American consumers.

The report, “A Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh: Good for Corporations, Bad for Your Wallet” reviews key pending Supreme Court cases, analyzes Judge Kavanaugh’s record as a judge on the D.C. Circuit in economic and financial cases, and surveys some of the most important legal holdings in the financial arena, showing the profound impact that these cases have on the economic well-being of every American.

“If you care about what’s in your wallet, you should be very worried if Judge Kavanaugh becomes Justice Kavanaugh on the Supreme Court,” said Better Markets President and CEO Dennis Kelleher.  “Anyone who gets a paycheck, has a savings or checking account, uses a credit card or debit card, or conducts financial transactions of any shape or form—in other words, every single American—should care about how a Justice Kavanaugh would rule on critical financial issues that directly impact every American family.”
