Women are expected to play a key role in White House's defense against the sexual assault allegation roiling Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation process, according to CNN.
White House officials are currently contacting women from Kavanaugh's past, particularly those who knew him in high school, to ask them to speak publicly about his integrity, sources told the network.
The White House team tasked with defending Kavanaugh is also reportedly considering holding a news conference with a group of women backing him this week.
The team has already begun contacting the 65 women who signed onto a letter supporting Kavanaugh last week, before California professor Christine Blasey Ford went public with her accusation, CNN reported.
