Mr. Chairman, there are many things we still can do… One of them is not to expedite nominees who have not been carefully vetted. I hope we don’t accept that as a standard in this Committee.

Before appointing a person to a lifetime appointment to the federal bench, shouldn’t we take a close look at their background?

A lifetime appointment for a federal district trial judge, I just don’t see how you put it together.

The majority is also violating numerous longstanding [Committee] standards in a desperate attempt to confirm the [un]qualified loyalists to lifetime appointments before Democrats take the majority.
