One advocate said that by keeping the blue slip tradition intact, Sen. Dick Durbin is endorsing 'the worst kind of extreme Republican obstructionism.'
"Democrats returned more than 130 blue slips during the Trump admin, confirming 84 district judges in states with at least one or two Dem senators," Bendery wrote on Twitter."More than two years into the Biden admin, Republicans have returned 13 blue slips. That's as of last month."
;“The blue slip rule isn't an official Senate rule.\n\nIt;’s a committee tradition; a senatorial courtesy.\n\nDurbin could do away with it today if he wanted. Republicans ignored it when Trump was president. They confirmed piles of his judges against Dems' wishes, from their states.
