                  Nomination of Allison Jones Rushing

  Mr. McCONNELL. Madam President, yesterday the Senate voted to advance 
the nomination of Allison Jones Rushing to serve on the Fourth Circuit 
Court of Appeals.
  As I noted yesterday, Ms. Rushing comes with significant appellate 
experience and has filed 47 briefs in the U.S. Supreme Court. It is 
clear to me, as it was to a majority of our colleagues on the Judiciary 
Committee, that she would make a fine addition to the Federal bench. So 
I will support her confirmation later today, and I recommend that each 
of our colleagues do the same.
