Date: April 2nd, 2019 2:32 PM Author: Flushed Nibblets They will reduce the amount of time each district judge's nomination can be stalled on the floor from 30 hours to 2 hours. Right now the Dems are just stalling each judge the full 30 hours, even if the judge is going to be unanimously confirmed.

|
Date: April 3rd, 2019 2:16 PM Author: Flushed Nibblets This article says this guy Kessler may be the trigger:
The majority leader started the gears turning toward that possibility Monday afternoon, when he filed cloture motions to break possible filibusters of Trump’s nominations of Jeffrey Kessler to be an assistant secretary of Commerce and Roy Kalman Altman to be a federal district judge based in South Florida. Both Kessler and Altman would qualify for the expedited consideration if GOP senators move to change the rules. |
