Schumer urges Thune to protect Senate’s ‘recommendation and consent’ function on Trump nominees

Outgoing Senate Majority Chief Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) is urging incoming Senate Majority Chief John Thune (R-S.D.) to protect the Senate’s “vital role” in guaranteeing the health of President-elect Trump’s nominees to carry senior government and judicial department positions.

Thune is beneath strain from Trump to place the Senate into an prolonged recess to permit the president-elect to make recess appointments to avoid the Senate affirmation course of if mandatory.

However Schumer in a letter launched on Monday stated that Democrats “stand ready and willing to work” with Republicans to offer “advice and consent” on the nominees.

“In particular, we commit to working in a bipartisan fashion to process each nominee by reviewing standard FBI background-investigation materials, scheduling hearings and markups in the committees of jurisdiction, and considering nominees on the Senate floor,” Schumer wrote.

He argued that the Senate should proceed to play its function of guaranteeing that the president selects “well-qualified public officials that will dutifully serve the American people and honor their oaths to the Constitution.”

“Regardless of party, the Senate has upheld this sacred duty for generations and we should not and must not waiver in our constitutional duty,” he stated.

Former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), whom Trump nominated to function legal professional basic, dropped his bid to move the Division of Justice (DOJ) final month after encountering stiff bipartisan resistance within the Senate. Senators had considerations over a Justice Division sex-trafficking investigation Gaetz was embroiled in in addition to a Home Ethics Committee investigation of sexual misconduct and drug-related allegations.

The DOJ in the end declined to deliver prices towards the congressman whereas two Democrats who moved to power votes requiring the Ethics panel to launch its report have signaled they are going to proceed that push.

Gaetz has vigorously denied the allegations.

A few of Trump’s different controversial nominees, together with former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (R-Hawaii), whom Trump has nominated to function director of nationwide intelligence, and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., whom Trump has tapped to move the Division of Well being and Human Companies, face probably robust roads to affirmation within the Senate.
