Senate Republicans Block Replacement of Feinstein on Judiciary Committee
TL;DR Summary
Senate Republicans blocked Democrats from temporarily replacing Sen. Dianne Feinstein on the Senate Judiciary Committee, stymieing the party in their push to confirm President Biden’s judicial nominees during Feinstein’s extended absence. Feinstein, who at 89 is the oldest member of the Senate, announced last week that she had asked Schumer to temporarily replace her on the committee while she continues to work from home. Senators are not allowed to vote remotely.
