So the republicans are going to delay the panel vote on the fed nominee Raskin, because they think

she is too "far left".

In addition, until Senator Ben Ray Luján comes back from a recovering stroke, not only will the SC nomination be delayed, but most likely all other nominations from Biden.

Senator Lujan said he should be back in a few weeks, but until that happens, Raskin and the other fed nominees will be held up, and Raskin won't get out of committee

F**K the republicans. When the repukes did this when the Democrats blocked amy comey barrett vote, the repukes just changed the rules. When Lujan comes back, the Democrats better do the same thing
