The Honorable Dianne Feinstein, Ranking Member

Committee on the Judiciary

Dear Chairman Grassley and Ranking Member Feinstein:

We are women who have known Brett Kavanaugh for more than 35 years and knew him
while he attended high school between 1979 and 1983. For the entire time we have known Brett
Kavanaugh, he has behaved honorably and treated women with respect. We strongly believe it is
important to convey this information to the Committee at this time.
Brett attended Georgetown Prep, an all-boys high school in Rockville, Maryland. He was
an outstanding student and athlete with a wide circle of friends. Almost all of us attended all-
girls high schools in the area. We knew Brett well through social events, sports, church, and
various other activities. Many of us have remained close friends with him and his family over
the years. Through the more than 35 years we have known him, Brett has stood out for his
friendship, character, and integrity. In particular, he has always treated women with decency and
respect. That was true when he was in high school, and it has remained true to this day.
The signers of this letter hold a broad range of political views. Many of us are not
lawyers, but we know Brett Kavanaugh as a person. And he has always been a good person.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Slye Aniskovich Missy Bigelow Carr
