Agree. One circuit judge is to have a confirmation vote on Monday. The rest are pending in Senate. There is a time issue in that I believe it takes a day or two longer to bring a circuit judge to a vote than a district court judge.
I don’t know Senate rules, but I don’t understand why Schumer doesn’t file many more clotures: 5 or 10 at a time. He ought to also consider keeping the Senate working longer hours, Fridays or even weekends. And each vote doesn’t need to take an hour.
Schumer needs to bring those judges over the goal line!
Especially those 5 circuit judges - there’s no bigger priority right now than getting them over the line
