After that embarrassing display by Grassley, Feinstein starts with Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act. Turning to Hyde Amendment—will you insure that the grant funds in this act will allow abortion for a victim of human trafficking in the rape exception in Hyde. Sessions appreciates the question and that the nation is dealing with the issue. Says he hasn’t thought it through (shocker) but will leave it up to Congress. Feinstein explains to him it is his job because it is actual law now, which he’ll have to enforce. Then turns to abortion and the scourge on women’s health illegal abortion represented. Says he has referred to “Roe” as one of the worst decisions ever. Asks if that’s still his view. He says yes. But it is the “law of the land” and he’ll “respect and follow it.” Now marriage equality—do you agree it’s settled law? “I’ll follow that decision.” Now asks about letter from law professors from 49 states (no law school in Alaska): Unanimous in disapproval of Sessions. How will you separate your personal (deplorable) views that disqualified you from a federal judgeship from the job as AG. He deflects, says look at your former colleague Arlen Specter, who said after the fact he was sorry he opposed Sessions. Says that the claims against him in the voting rights and Klan cases he pursued as AG in Alabama are “false.” They aren’t.
