Confirming John Roberts
Posted by Moonage on 06 Sep 2005 | Tagged as: The Legal Process
Independent Sources does a nice job detailing the timeline of the John Roberts confirmation process:
Today or tomorrow: President€™s formal nomination of Roberts sent to the Senate
Monday, Sept. 12 Committee hearings open, with opening statements by members and by Judge Roberts
Tuesday, Sept. 13 Questioning of Roberts begins
Thursday or Friday, Sept. 15 or 16 Committee hearings expected to conclude
Thursday, Sept. 22 Target date for vote in Judiciary Committee
Monday, Sept. 26 Target date for opening of floor debate on the nomination
Thursday or Friday, Sept. 29 or 30 Target dates for final Senate vote on confirmation.
They then intertwine Barbara Boxer’s timeline as well.
Some other notables will probably be documented here as well. I’ll do them as they occur.
Maybe.
For now just check out IS’s timeline to be on top of things.
