Perry O Hooper Jr. Applauds Judge Bill Pryor

Alabama Co-Chairman for the Donald Trump Campaign and US Senate appointment candidate Perry O Hooper Jr. applauded Judge Bill Pryor for being a finalist for the open US Supreme Court seat once held by Antonin Scalia.

Perry O Hooper Jr. said, “Judge Pryor is an upstanding and fair jurist and would be the perfect person to replace the late Antonin Scalia.”

Hooper went on to say, “Judge Pryor and I go back a long time and we have worked together on many issues. When my father was elected as the first republican Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice, Bill Pryor as Attorney General fought to ensure his certification.

When I was in the Alabama Legislature and he was the Alabama Attorney General he drafted my legislation allowing students a moment of silence in schools, which was upheld by the courts. I am confident that he would be the type of Supreme Court Justice that Americans want on the Supreme Court.”

Hooper also said, “Judge Pryor will interrupt the Constitution just as it was written and not legislate from the bench. He knows that the job of writing laws lies with Congress and it’s the Supreme Court’s job to interrupt them with respect to existing laws and the Constitution. That is what we need from a Supreme Court Justice and that is what will get with Judge Bill Pryor.”
