"In the next few weeks, the Senate is likely to take up two highly controversial judicial nominees: Thomas Farr for the Eastern District of North Carolina and Ryan Bounds for a Ninth Circuit seat in Oregon."

"Farr has spent a lengthy legal career defending the interests of corps against their workers. He 2x defended the GOP's gerrymandering of congressional districts & defended NC's restrictive voter ID law, which "targeted African Americans with almost surgical precision."

"Bounds is also controversial & had some rather offensive writings that he failed to disclose to the bipartisan Judicial Advisory Committee established by @RonWyden & @SenJeffMerkley, yet despite the opposition of BOTH OR senators, the Majority is moving forward with Bounds' nom."

".@SenateMajLdr has shown he's willing to confirm a judge over the objection of one home state Senator, but he will erase a fine & noble tradition of bipartisanship & consultation if he schedules a vote & confirms a judge opposed by both Senators, like Bounds."
