Feinstein's absence raises questions about judicial nominee delays and recovery time.
TL;DR Summary
Sen. Dianne Feinstein has pushed back on claims that her absence from the Senate and the Judiciary Committee has caused a significant delay in advancing and confirming judicial nominees. While she acknowledged that some nominees have been blocked from moving forward during her absence, she stated that there has been no slowdown in the confirmation process. Without Feinstein, the committee is tied, and some nominees have failed to move forward. Feinstein plans to return but did not specify when.
