Feinstein's absence doesn't stop Biden's judicial nominees from advancing with GOP support.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein's extended absence from the Senate has stalled Democrats' efforts to advance President Biden's judicial nominees, with 15 nominees waiting to be voted out of the Senate Judiciary Committee and six waiting for hearings before the panel. The committee voted on several nominees without Feinstein present, but some nominees could remain in limbo due to attendance issues slowing the panel's work. The Biden administration has had more than 100 judges confirmed by the Senate thus far.
