its a gigantic mess. Very likely the spread happened at her comfirmation ceremony. Senators cant meet with her in the middle of a pandemic . Several tested positive already. She should spare them that and just bow down.

She should withdraw because she's a hack and a liar.

(32,075 posts)None. Zero. Nada. Zilch. She accepted under already grossly-unseemly circumstances. This won't change her mind.

that being said........ i agree with you. at the very least she should call for a delay in hearings until all senators have been tested covid free and/or positive testers quarantine for two weeks. that means no hearings for at least two weeks while Lee recovers.
