"When Ms. Lewinsky agreed to cooperate with the Office of Independent Counsel, I was asked to be one of the team of prosecutors debriefing her. As I was involved in the debriefings, I was asked to participate in questioning Ms. Lewinsky before the grand jury and take her deposition," she noted in response to another question.
Responding to questions from Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein, Immergut expressed the view that it is not appropriate for lower courts to buck Supreme Court precedent.
Asked whether Roe v. Wade was "settled law," she replied, "Yes" — the nation's high court overturned the controversial abortion ruling in 2022.
Asked whether the Supreme Court's ruling in Obergefell v. Hodges that same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marry is "settled law," she again replied in the affirmative.
Sen. Feinstein passed away in 2023.
