As we enter the last full week of October, the number of federal judicial nominees awaiting a Senate floor vote has ballooned to fourteen. The last federal judge confirmed by the Senate was Ralph Erickson (U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit) on September 28, 2017.
Meanwhile, the number of judicial vacancies continues to rise, reaching a total of 167 current and known future vacancies. Recognizing the growing logjam of nominees awaiting confirmation—with more likely to hit the Senate floor next week—yesterday eleven senators sent a letter to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell expressing their support to work “24/7” to overcome “unprecedented obstruction” by the Democratic minority.
