As hearings come to a close for Biden's Supreme Court nominee, several Republicans say a boycott against her is off the table, including SenThomTillis.
The Senate Judiciary Committee will continue meeting in the coming weeks as it works toward eventually reporting Jackson's nomination to the floor. Senate rules state if all Republicans on the evenly split 11-11 committee fail to attend meetings, there will be no quorum and, in essence, could stymie the process.
Texas Sen. John Cornyn voiced frustration at Democratic committee Chairman Dick Durbin's unwillingness to request sealed pre-sentencing reports by federal probation offices in regards to Jackson's cases involving child pornographers. Durbin firmly rejected additional calls for those requests on Thursday, citing the sensitivity of victims and loved ones involved in the cases overseen by Jackson.
