#Vought’s confirmation hearing was contentious. Sen #BernieSanders accused him of using #Islamophobic language when he wrote in 2016 that #Muslims “do not know God because they have rejected Jesus Christ his Son, & they stand condemned.”

Vought told senators his remarks were taken out of context & said he respected the right of every person to express their #religious beliefs.
