Gorsuch Told Class Women 'Manipulate' Maternal Leave
Former Law Student: Gorsuch Told Class Women 'Manipulate' Maternal Leave
On April 19, 2016, Sisk wrote, Judge Gorsuch used a hypothetical from the prepared material for the class, in which a female law student applies for jobs at law firms because the student has a large debt to pay off. The student also intends to have a family with her husband.
"He interrupted our class discussion to ask students how many of us knew women who used their companies for maternity benefits, who used their companies to in order to have a baby and then leave right away," Sisk said.
She recalled that few students raised their hands and Gorsuch became animated.
"He said, 'Come on, guys. All of your hands should be up. Many women do this,'" Sisk said.
Ron Bonjean, a spokesman for the Trump administration working on the Gorsuch nomination, noted that the judge had consistently gotten among the highest student ratings at the law school.
