                              Nominations

  Mr. President, on nominations, it has been another busy week here on 
the Senate floor. Yesterday, we confirmed Hernan Vera to serve as a 
district judge for the Central District of California and Jared 
Bernstein to be Chairman of the CEA, the Council of Economic Advisers.
  Today, the Senate will continue our work by voting to confirm another 
district judge, Casey Pitts, for the Northern District of California 
and advance two more district judges today, Dale Ho for the Southern 
District of New York and Nusrat Choudhury for the Eastern District of 
New York.
  This week, we will also advance the nomination of Julie Rikelman to 
be Circuit Court judge for the First Circuit.
  It is a big week for judges here in the Senate. I thank my colleagues 
for their work.
  I yield the floor.
  I suggest the absence of a quorum.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will call the roll.
  The senior assistant legislative clerk proceeded to call the roll.
  Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that the order 
for the quorum call be rescinded.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
