"In a continuing response to the current administration’s persecution of President Donald Trump, we will not allow the fast-tracking of any Biden Article III court judicial nominees, as well as Biden U.S. attorney nominations."
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Senators JD Vance (R-OH), Mike Lee (R-UT), Bill Hagerty (R-TN), Roger Marshall (R-KS), Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), and Eric Schmitt (R-MO) have announced a sweeping hold policy on a series of President Biden’s Senate nominees. This move is in response to what they describe as the Biden administration’s radical lawfare against President Trump and other political opponents.
The senators' hold policy currently applies to specific nominees but could expand if further nominations are announced by the Biden administration.
