In the Spotlight: Efficiency, Oversight, and Senate Traditions

NTD spoke with Mike Leon and Aaron Dusso about Senate confirmation delays.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune on Thursday criticized the chamber's system to approve nominees, which usually requires a 60-vote threshold, calling it a "broken process." Meanwhile, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said his party was holding up the votes due to what he called "historically bad nominees."

NTD spoke with Mike Leon, NTD News contributor and host of the "Can We Please Talk Podcast?" and Aaron Dusso, associate professor for political science at Indiana University-Indianapolis.
