Gabbard nomination puts Senate GOP in a bind

When asked about Gabbard’s FISA opposition, Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), who also sits on the Intelligence panel, called it “an essential tool” for national security but noted that “people’s views can change over the years as they learn more.”

Collins added that Gabbard is “a nominee that illustrates the importance of a full background check, a public hearing, and the constitutional role of the Senate.”
