☆ Republicans sure don't sound like they're about to block Democrats from filling Dianne Feinstein's Judiciary Committee seat
  + stars: | 2023-09-29 | by ( Bryan Metzger | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Dianne Feinstein's seat on the Judiciary committee is now empty in the wake of her death. AdvertisementAdvertisementIn the wake of Sen. Dianne Feinstein's death, questions are swirling over how the California Democrat's now-empty seat on the Senate Judiciary Committee will be filled. In order to change the membership of any Senate committee, the chamber has to pass a resolution to make that change official. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer can do so via a simple voice vote if no Republicans object to the change. Sen. JD Vance of Ohio said it was up to Republicans on the Judiciary Committee and that he would "probably support" whatever decision they made.

☆ Republicans could filibuster the replacement of Dianne Feinstein, but it's unclear if they actually would: 'We couldn't do that'

They argue that Republicans could filibuster the appointment of a new senator to the Judiciary Committee. "We couldn't do that," said Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, who chaired the committee from 2015 to 2019. "I don't know why that would be a problem," said Republican Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri, another member of the committee. With Feinstein absent, the Judiciary Committee could not quickly approve and send to the floor a slate of nominees that lacked GOP support. Republican Sen. Rick Scott of Florida expressed amazement that replacing Feinstein's seat could be subject to the Senate's 60-vote filibuster.

☆ Senator Ben Cardin Will Retire, Teeing Up Competitive Primaries in Maryland
  + stars: | 2023-05-01 | by ( Trip Gabriel | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
Senator Ben Cardin of Maryland, a long-serving Democrat, announced his retirement on Monday, clearing the way for highly competitive primaries to replace him in 2024, especially among Democrats in a deep-blue state. The state’s liberal-leaning voters have not sent a Republican to the U.S. Senate since 1980, and the eight-member congressional delegation includes just one member of the G.O.P. “I have run my last election and will not be on the ballot in 2024, but there is still much work to be done,” Mr. Cardin said in a statement. “During the next two years, I will continue to travel around the state, listening to Marylanders and responding to their needs.”High-profile Maryland Democrats who could be in the mix to replace Mr. Cardin include Representatives Jamie Raskin and David Trone, and Angela Alsobrooks, the executive of Prince George’s County.
☆ Telling Dianne Feinstein to resign is sexist and 'unprecedented,' women Democratic senators say
  + stars: | 2023-04-19 | by ( Bryan Metzger | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
But Democratic women in the Senate say gender is playing a role in how her absence is being handled. But women Democratic senators told Insider at the Capitol on Wednesday that they believe sexism is at play and that the chamber's longest-serving Democrat is being held to an unfair standard because she is a woman. More recently, Democratic Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania was recently absent from the chamber for six weeks as he sought treatment for clinical depression. "I think it's important for Senator Feinstein to do what is what is best for her," said Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire. "I just believe that it's not somebody else's assessment to make; it's her assessment to make," said Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin.
