(Washington, DC)  --  Democratic members of Oregon's congressional delegation are criticizing President Donald Trump's choice to fill a vacancy on the U.S. Supreme Court.  Senator Ron Wyden says the nomination of federal appeals court Judge Neil Gorsuch represents a retreat from the notion that Americans have a fundamental right to Constitutional liberties.  Junior Senator Jeff Merkley calls Gorsuch "an illegitimate and extreme nominee."  President Trump says Gorsuch has "outstanding legal skills, a brilliant mind, tremendous discipline, and has earned bipartisan support."
