Quorum call ms. Cortez masto mr. President , i rise today in opposition to it the nomination of lawrence van dyke to serve on the United States court of appeals for the ninth circuit. Mr. Van dyke fits neatly into this administrations pattern of picking federal judges for our Circuit Courts of appeal without meaningful input from home state senators. The president continues to select ideologically extreme nominees like mr. Van dyke, and the white house is putting forward people without enough experience for the momentous roles they have been chosen to serve. Mr. Van dyke has been nominated to fill a nevada seat on the ninth circuit, even though hes not a nevadan. He didnt grow up in my state, he doesnt appear to own property there, he doesnt seem to have family ties, and he was only an active member of the nevada state bar for two years. Senator rosen and i engage with the white house to put forward highly respected nevadans with bipartisan support, but our suggestions were summarily i

Who have been down this road many times. Criminal investigations are designed to find out if a crime was committed and hold somebody responsible. Congress has a broader mandate, were not prosecutors, but our goal is to shed light on information that may be highly significant but not necessarily criminal. Adjust policy as needed, change laws when appropriate. But in a particular circumstance, find out what happened, not as a prosecutor but as a policymaker.
