LIVE: Joe Biden Makes Remarks on Securing 235 Judicial Confirmations During White House Tenure | CNBC TV18
Watch live coverage as President Biden delivers remarks on securing 235 judicial confirmations during his term in office.
President Biden is set to deliver remarks Thursday afternoon on securing a record 235 judicial confirmations over the last four years. The achievement came after the Senate ran into significant delays and fighting that held up confirmation hearings for several nominees.
Washington — President Biden on Wednesday will mark the 235 judicial confirmations he secured during his single term in the White House, a figure that surpasses that of his predecessor, President-elect Donald Trump.
Mr. Biden is set to deliver remarks from the White House highlighting the judges that he nominated and the Democrat-led Senate confirmed to the federal bench. The president's judicial record includes one appointment to the Supreme Court, 45 to the federal courts of appeals, 187 to the U.S. district courts and two to the U.S. Court of International Trade.
Mr. Biden's pick of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson for the Supreme Court was historic, as she is the first Black woman to sit on the nation's highest court.
The previous record was held by President-elect Trump, who had 234 judges confirmed during his first term in office. Trump, after winning the 2024 election, pressed the Senate to hold off on confirming judges until he returned to the Oval Office following Inauguration Day.
