Another major win for our advocacy Senate is changing the rules, will expedite confirmation of district judges, cut the debate time from 30 to 2 hours, on other non-cabinet nominees the time will be cut from 30 to 8 hours. I advocated this rule change for years

Senate Republicans are poised to move forward with a proposal to cut down the amount of debate time required to confirm President Trump’s nominees.

Republicans have been privately mulling the change for more than a year, arguing Democrats are using the Senate’s rulebook to slow-walk the president’s picks.

The Senate Rules Committee is scheduled to vote Wednesday on a proposal from Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) to shrink the amount of debate time.

Currently, nominees have to churn through another 30 hours of debate, after clearing an initial hurdle, allowing opponents to eat up a day of floor time on one nomination.

Lankford’s proposal would cut the amount of time required from 30 hours to eight hours for hundreds of nominees, and limit post-cloture debate time on district court judges to two hours.

The rule change wouldn’t effect most cabinet-level nominations, Supreme Court justices or circuit court judges.

With Republicans holding a majority on the panel, Lankford’s proposal is likely to pass on Wednesday’s vote.

    Why did this take so long?

    McConnell is starting to become Patriotic?

    Boy, it’s too bad we didn’t have Orly in Congress, all this time!

    She would’ve been the catalyst in keeping the herd of treasonous members inline! 🙂
