WASHINGTON (CN) The Senate confirmed two more Trump appointees to the federal bench Wednesday in a final push to cement the lame-duck president’s reshaping of the judiciary.
Katherine Crytzer was confirmed in a 48-47 vote to fill a vacancy on the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee left open after the death of Chief Judge Pamela L. Reeves, an Obama appointee and the first woman to serve on the federal bench in that district.
Crytzer and Joseph Dawson III, confirmed later Wednesday, mark 232 federal judges appointed by President Donald Trump, the second most of any president near the end of their first term. Only Jimmy Carter had more, 260, at this point in his single term.
