Kirk backs Lynch as fifth Republican for attorney general
Senator Kirk becomes the fifth Republican to back Loretta Lynch, giving her 51 votes in the Senate. He joins Hatch, Graham, Flake, and Collins in support as Democrats hold 46 votes, clearing confirmation despite GOP concerns about independence and immigration policy. Lynch, 55, would be the first black woman as attorney general, replacing Eric Holder.
