Break Specialists: GOP Uses Recess to Move Judges
It's no wonder Democrats were desperate to get out of Washington and onto the campaign trail. Of the 35 Senate seats on the ballot this year, Chuck Schumer's (D-N.Y.) party is defending 26. So when Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) agreed to recess two weeks early, he made sure to exact a price: 15 more judicial confirmations. Now, after tearing through those, McConnell is making it clear -- he's not close to finished. The Brett Kavanaugh story may have had a happy ending, but the GOP is a long way from forgetting what liberals did to the Supreme Court justice. If anything, the bruising process only made the majority leader more determined. "He's mad as a mama wasp," Senator John Kennedy told Roll Call about McConnell. And he's making Democrats regret it with another full ... (more)

The California bill SB 320 would have required the state's 34 public universities with on-campus student health centers to make abortion pills available on campus to more than 400,000 female students by January 1, 2022. SB 320 passed both chambers and was recently vetoed by the Governor. This is significant due to the fact that this bill would have become the first of its kind in the country and would have served as a model for other states to turn their student health centers into abortion clinics. Legislation like SB 320 shows a reckless ... (more)

by Travis Weber

Travis Weber is Vice President for Policy at Family Research Council. This article appeared in The Federalist on October 3, 2018. For the sake of our political system, we must re-embrace the balance of power the Constitution originally envisioned. If there is anything our country has learned from the hype, drama, and antics surrounding Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing, it is that the Supreme Court is far too important in our nation’s political system. The high price we pay for politicizing the confirmation ... (more)
