Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation hearings will begin March 21. Democrats hope to confirm Jackson ahead of the Senate’s Easter recess in mid-April.
Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation hearings will begin March 21, a top Democrat announced Wednesday.
Jackson, President Biden’s nominee to succeed retiring Justice Stephen G. Breyer, began a series of meetings with senators on Wednesday. She met with Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Wednesday morning and will meet with Durbin and Sen. Charles E. Grassley , the top Republican on the judiciary panel, Wednesday afternoon.
Though the 50-50 Senate can confirm Jackson without any Republican votes, Schumer expressed optimism that she will make a good impression when she meets with GOP senators. She met virtually with Vice President Kamala Harris on Feb. 11, and with Biden and Remus at the White House on Feb. 14. She said Biden offered her the nomination on Feb. 24, and she accepted it. The following day, Biden publicly announced his intent to nominate her.
The CBC set up a war room even before Biden announced his nominee Friday, according to an aide who spoke on condition of anonymity.
