"Judge Jackson has a pattern of letting child porn offenders off the hook for their appalling crimes, both as a judge and as a policymaker. She's been advocating for it since law school. This goes beyond 'soft on crime.' I'm concerned that this a record that endangers our children." -Sen. Josh Hawley

"Judge Jackson has a pattern of letting child porn offenders off the hook for their appalling crimes, both as a judge and as a policymaker," wrote the Senator. "She's been advocating for it since law school. This goes beyond 'soft on crime.' I'm concerned that this a record that endangers our children."
