Senate Democrats have pushed back the schedule to consider the nomination of Pam Bondi, who is President Donald Trump’s nominee to be U.S. attorney general, by at least a week.
On Tuesday, the Judiciary Committee sent out a notice announcing that a planned Wednesday meeting, at which members could have voted to advance Bondi’s nomination to the full Senate, had been called off.
“Per Judiciary Committee Rule I.3, any member of the Committee may request an item on the Committee’s agenda be held over for a minimum of seven days. Holds are common practice in the Senate Judiciary Committee,” the notice said.
“Pursuant to this rule, the Minority will hold Bondi’s nomination for seven days. As a result of this hold, which goes into effect tomorrow, the Committee will not meet in person for this week’s executive business meeting,” the advisory added.
