NOMINATIONS
Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. President, the Republican majority seems to have a
whole lot of time to push rightwing judges. That is what they want to
do next week. And both of the judges that they nominate--to show the
hypocrisy of those who talk about wanting to help and compare it to
their actions, both of those judges have an antipathy to our healthcare
law. In the middle of a public healthcare crisis, the Republican
majority thinks they can get away with stuff like this, but they can't.
Americans are catching on. One of the nominees, Cory Wilson, has an
alarming record on voting rights in the middle of a national reckoning
on racial injustice, and you are all going to vote for him? This guy
has opposed voting rights, and you are going to vote for him. They
oppose healthcare. You are going to vote for them. And then they are
going to give nice speeches on how they want equality. The two have to
add up together
