Senate Republicans might finally be making moves to ensure Donald Trump’s nominees get confirmed.
According to The Hill, “Senate Republicans are zeroing in on a rule change, which would be enacted through the “nuclear option,” that would allow them to expeditiously confirm scores of President Trump’s executive branch and judicial nominees.”
One idea being floated is allowing a single vote for up to 10 nominees – this idea is based on a Democrat proposal.
Senate Republicans are zeroing in on a rule change, which would be enacted through the “nuclear option,” that would allow them to expeditiously confirm scores of President Trump’s executive branch and judicial nominees.
The Republicans are hoping to move quickly and home in on a plan on Wednesday, when they convene for a special conference meeting specifically to address the issue after weeks of discussion.
The GOP has floated a number of ideas, but the leading option would allow the upper chamber to confirm nominees en bloc if they were greenlighted by the same committee.
The idea is based on a Democratic proposal unveiled two years ago that would allow a single vote on up to 10 nominees. The nascent GOP plan is unlikely to stick to the 10-nominee figure, and could be broadened out to include nominees from multiple committees in one bloc.
Donald Trump has previously called on Chuck Grassley to overturn the blue slip rule.
Trump wrote in August, “Chuck Grassley should allow strong Republican candidates to ascend to these very vital and powerful roles, and tell the Democrats, as they often tell us, to go to HELL!”
I have a Constitutional Right to appoint Judges and U.S. Attorneys, but that RIGHT has been completely taken away from me in States that have just one Democrat United States Senator. This is because of an old and outdated “custom” known as a BLUE SLIP, that Senator Chuck Grassley, of the Great State of Iowa, refuses to overturn, even though the Democrats, including Crooked Joe Biden (Twice!), have done so on numerous occasions. Therefore, the only candidates that I can get confirmed for these most important positions are, believe it or not, Democrats! Chuck Grassley should allow strong Republican candidates to ascend to these very vital and powerful roles, and tell the Democrats, as they often tell us, to go to HELL!
Confirm Trump’s nominees!
