Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has set a date for the Amy Coney Barrett confirmation vote. The Senate Judiciary Committee will vote on Thursday, after the committee’s approval, the full chamber will vote on Judge Barrett on Monday, October 26, following a procedural vote on Sunday.
“With regard to the Supreme Court justice, we’ll be voting to confirm justice-to-be Barrett next Monday,” Leader McConnell said. “I think that will be another signature accomplishment in our effort to put on the courts, the federal courts, men and women that believe in the quaint notion that maybe the job of a judge is to actually follow the law.”
