On the recordNovember 18, 2014
On behalf of the people of Georgia, the next three votes will be three judges for the State of Georgia. Senator Chambliss, the senior Senator from Georgia, has done an outstanding job of leading our Judiciary Committee to negotiate with the President and White House on six nominations, three of which we have approved and the final three are tonight. I heartily recommend to each Member of the Chamber a vote for Leslie Abrams for the Middle District of Georgia, Eleanor Ross for the Northern District of Georgia, and Mark Cohen for the Northern District of Georgia. All are extremely competent, talented individuals. I thank the Obama administration and all those who worked with us to come up with a package of judges to fill the vacancies in the State of Georgia. I yield to Senator Chambliss. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Georgia.
