Durbin: Still negotiating over the Senate organizing resolution [View all]




Schumer and McConnell still negotiating over the Senate organizing resolution, per Durbin. McConnell didn’t answer when asked what the hold up was earlier today.


The delay over the organizing resolution, which gives the committee gavels to Dems, is already impacting Biden’s nominees. Durbin can’t set a hearing for Garland because Graham is still chairman. Graham wants a 2 day hearing, refusing to set one before the impeachment trial.
