Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) announced that she won't vote to confirm Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh until the FBI investigates the multiple claims of sexual assault leveled against him.
The Alaska Republican reportedly spoke with Sen. Jeff Flake (R-AZ) before he called to delay the confirmation vote for a week so the FBI could investigate and coordinated her announcement with him.
