We now have two members of the Senate Judiciary Committee who have tested positive for COVID, and there may be more. I wish my colleagues well.
It is irresponsible and dangerous to move forward with a hearing, and there is absolutely no good reason to do so.— Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) October 3, 2020
The Senate will not be able to take a vote on Amy Barrett if two Republican senators are out with Covid. I feel very suspicious about the timing of this.I do agree with Schumer that there is no reason for hearings. They should’ve voted last Monday.
