Excellent. Circuit Court judges really matter - far more than District Court judges. The Turtle needs to push more through more quickly.
The Turtle is actually pretty good with confirming the appellate judges. there are only 3 pending confirmations that have cleared the judiciary committee with 7 still at the committee level.
He still has district judges that were nominated almost a year ago waiting for confirmation. Hopefully a bunch can get confirmed during the cancelled recess this summer.
But yes, the appellate judges take priority.
