On the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, where these Michigan circuit judges are needed so desperately, isn't it true right now that Federal district judges are having to go to the Sixth Circuit and be seated because of the judicial crisis we have on the Sixth Circuit? We have a 25 percent--25 percent of the Sixth Circuit is vacant. Not because of the President of the United States. Four Michigan nominees were sent up here some time ago. They have been in the Judiciary Committee. They are having to draft district judges. It is the slowest circuit in America because it is 25 percent vacant.
