The Future of Dianne Feinstein's Senate Career Uncertain Amid Calls for Resignation and Health Concerns.

Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein's allies are rebuffing calls for her to step down from her job entirely before her term is up in 2024. They argue her request this week to be replaced on the Senate Judiciary Committee while recuperating from shingles should satisfy critics. Feinstein's absence from Congress for nearly two months while dealing with her illness means the party can't move some of President Joe Biden's nominees through the Judiciary Committee. Feinstein's critics argue the situation has become untenable given there's no clear indication on when she'll return.
