Washington (CNN) Alabama Democratic Sen. Doug Jones predicted on Sunday that Brett Kavanaugh's nomination for the Supreme Court would move forward following an anonymous accusation of sexual misconduct from his high school days.

"I think you are going to see this nomination move forward," Jones said on CNN's "State of the Union". "There's really not much that can be done unless this person comes forward and you can see this and talk to the person who wrote that letter."

Jones said he would bring up the accusation if he gets a chance to meet with Kavanaugh and is otherwise still deliberating on his vote for the Supreme Court choice.

CNN reported on Friday that California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein had received a letter from a woman who wished to remain anonymous, saying that while in high school, Kavanaugh pushed her into a bedroom at a party, locked her in the room along with another male and tried to remove her clothes. Kavanaugh denied the allegation in a statement.

Jones called the situation "very difficult" and said he wished it had been brought up earlier in the confirmation process.
