EXECUTIVE CALENDAR
Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, pursuant to yesterday's authority, the
Senate will now vote on the following nominations: Executive Calendar
Nos. 48, 55, and 351.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report Calendar No. 48.
The senior assistant legislative clerk read the nomination of Karin
J. Immergut, of Oregon, to be United States District Judge for the
District of Oregon.
Thereupon, the Senate proceeded to consider the nomination.
The PRESIDING OFFICER. The question is, Will the Senate advise and
consent to the Immergut nomination?
The nomination was confirmed.
Mr. HAWLEY. Mr. President, I oppose the confirmation of U.S. District
Court nominee Karin Immergut. She went through the committee
confirmation process in 2018, before I joined the Senate Judiciary
Committee, and subsequently, she was part of a package of judges who
were renominated and voted out earlier this year. I later learned that
the nominee had issued a questionable abortion opinion and is pro-
choice.
