BREAKING: Despite longest 50-50 Senate in history, the Committee & @SenateDems had enormous success when it came to judges. In total, Committee voted to advance 126 noms & Senate confirmed 97 lifetime appointments—better than the first two years of the Obama & Trump Admins.

Senate Democrats have confirmed 95 of @POTUS's highly qualified and diverse judicial nominees to the federal bench:

About 75% are women
Almost 70% are people of color
Nearly 50% are women of color
Nearly 25% are Black women

And we will keep working to confirm more!

There are two Alabama vacancies, also not filled because of deference to home state Senators who refuse to return courtesy blue slips that would let nominations move forward. Where blue slips are unreasonably withheld by GOP Senators nominations should go forward regardless. https://t.co/tKA4so0GKM

Analysis: Democrats can keep confirming them now, after they kept the Senate majority. But thanks to the GOP’s 2015-16 blockade, the makeup of the courts hasn’t shifted as substantially.https://t.co/PH1X1iNFHk
