The party identification of Brett Kavanaugh as a voter is unknown, despite the fact that he served in a Republican presidential administration, was nominated by a Republican president, and was approved by a Republican-controlled Senate.
Which political party is Brett Kavanaugh?
Kavanaugh worked at the White House as an associate counsel from 2001 to 2003, a senior associate counsel from 2003 until he was appointed assistant to the president and staff secretary from 2003 to 2006.
At the time, Ashley Estes, who would later become his wife, was working as the president’s personal secretary.
Bush twice proposed Kavanaugh for appointment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (in 2003 and 2005), but the Republican-controlled Senate never took up the nominations.
Bush renominated Kavanaugh for the D.C. Circuit in January 2006; he was finally confirmed in May.
The D.C. Circuit is more involved in deciding federal rules than other appellate courts since it has authority over numerous federal administrative agencies.
