Schumer urges Thune to preserve Senate's 'advice and consent' role on Trump nominees

Outgoing Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) is urging incoming Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) to preserve the Senate's "vital role" in ensuring the fitness of President-elect Trump's nominees to hold senior executive and judicial branch positions.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has urged Minority Whip John Thune to ensure that the Senate maintains its constitutional role in providing "advice and consent" on President Trump's nominees. In a letter, Schumer emphasized the importance of not rushing through nominations without adequate review, particularly highlighting the need for thorough vetting of nominees for lifetime judicial appointments. He criticized the previous administration's approach of fast-tracking nominees, which he believes undermines the Senate's duty to scrutinize appointees. Schumer's call comes in the context of recent discussions about the Senate's procedures and the balance of power in the confirmation process, stressing the need for a return to a more deliberate and bipartisan approach in handling presidential nominations.
