Senate OK's Trump's nominee to 9th Circuit over objections from Democratic home-state senators.....
The Senate has confirmed Kenneth Lee to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals despite opposition from California’s two Democratic home-state senators.
Lee’s nomination was approved by the Senate Wednesday in a 52-45 party-line vote. He is the 40th federal appeals court judge nominated by President Trump to be confirmed. Lee, 43, is replacing the late Judge Stephen Reinhardt, who was considered to be a liberal lion of the 9th Circuit.
The Senate moved forward with Lee’s confirmation over objections from California Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris, both Democrats. Neither Feinstein nor Harris returned their “blue slip” for Lee and had urged Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., to pull his nomination because of “disregard for the vetting process and his failure to turn over requested material.”.....snip~
