Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., announced he will oppose the confirmation of Neil Gorsuch for the Supreme Court.

"Judge Gorsuch's selective activism in restricting women's rights and his framing of women making their own health decisions as 'the wrongdoing of others' are jarring and do not demonstrate a philosophy that belongs on the Supreme Court," he said.

Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. has been urging Democrats to oppose the Gorsuch nomination, The Hill said.

Should Democrats block his nomination, Republicans will consider going "nuclear" and changing the rules in the Senate for push through the Gorsuch confirmation, the website noted.
