Senate prepares to consider McKee judicial nominees amid scrutiny

McKee’s Supreme Court nominee Luis Matos remains in the Senate advice-and-consent process, with a hearing planned for Nov. 17 and a 60-day window. Foulkes says the process should proceed; concerns raised by a woman about Matos’s abortion views remain her allegation, while Matos says he is pro-choice. Other judicial nominations were still awaiting formal transmission, and Senate Judiciary is scheduled to meet Nov. 17–18.
