75% Informative

There are 17 judicial nominees who have already been advanced by the Senate Judiciary Committee and are ready for a floor vote.

The Democratic judicial push has confirmed 213 Biden nominees to the federal bench so far and has broken records in terms of racial and professional diversity.

A senior White House official encouraged Democrats to show up and do the job they were elected to do.

In his first term, Trump inherited more than 100 openings on the federal bench, benefitting from a Senate that was under GOP control.

That won’t be the case when Trump returns to Washington in January .

There are 47 current openings many of them in for district court seats where Republican home state senators and the White House could not agree on a nominee.
