YouTube Description
as posted by the channel(Oct. 15) Watch live as House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy holds a weekly news conference on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, October 15, 2020.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Judge Amy Coney Barrett has enough support to win Senate confirmation to the Supreme Court and he expects to bring her nomination to the floor on Oct. 23.
Senate Republicans are powering ahead with their plan to place Barrett on the Supreme Court before Election Day. After three days of hearings, the GOP-led Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday set an Oct. 22 vote to advance her nomination to the full Senate.
Speaking at an event in his home state of Kentucky, McConnell said he will bring the nomination to the full Senate the next day, confident that Barrett has the backing of at least 51 Republicans.
“We have the votes,” he said.
