GOP Blocks Request To Replace Dianne Feinstein On Judiciary Committee
"A Democratic effort to temporarily replace Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) on the Senate Judiciary Committee failed on Tuesday, depriving Democrats of an easy way out of their dilemma involving the ailing California senator.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) asked for unanimous consent on the Senate floor to approve a resolution subbing out Feinstein with Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.), but Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) objected.
Feinstein, 89, requested last week that she be temporarily replaced on the powerful panel while she recovers from a bout of shingles that has kept her away from Washington for two months. It’s unclear when she will return, and her continued absence could stall dozens of President Joe Biden’s judicial nominees."
