### Biden's Judicial Nominees Await Senate Judiciary Committee Vote

Former Rep. Anthony Brindisi of Utica appeared before the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, September 25, 2024, in Washington, D.C., to testify regarding his nomination for a federal judge's position.

The committee, which is set to convene at 10 a.m., will also consider a total of six of President Joe Biden's nominations for federal judgeships, including two candidates for posts in Central New York. The outcome of the meeting will determine if Republicans follow former President Donald Trump's advice to block these confirmations.

The nominations are crucial as the new judges will significantly influence the judicial landscape in Central New York. All eyes are on the committee's session, anticipating whether the political divide will impact the decision-making process.
