Confirm Biden's judicial nominees to uphold rule of law
To: Sen. Cruz, Sen. Cornyn

November 29
We request prompt action to confirm President Biden's highly qualified judicial nominees before the end of the current Senate term. The federal judiciary plays a crucial role in upholding the rule of law and ensuring the proper functioning of our justice system. Leaving vacancies unfilled will lead to mounting case backlogs and delays, ultimately denying citizens their Constitutional right to a fair and timely trial. President Biden has made historic strides in appointing judges who reflect the diversity of our nation and bring a wide range of professional experiences to the bench. Allowing these nominees to proceed will strengthen public trust in our courts and judicial process. Each nominee has undergone rigorous vetting and earned bipartisan approval from the Senate Judiciary Committee. With the limited time remaining, we urge all Senators to work evenings and weekends if necessary to complete the confirmation of these outstanding candidates. A fully staffed and representative federal judiciary is essential for the equal administration of justice and preservation of our democratic institutions. We call on you to act swiftly in this critical matter of national importance.
