I am resorting to a bit of a nuclear option myself, day one

The nominee


Jane Branstetter Stranch
Nominee for the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit
56 years old


The problem and my letter

On On Nov 19th, 2009 the US Senate Judiciary Committee approved Jane Branstetter Stranch, a nominee to the 6th US Circuit Court of Appeals, on a 15-4 bipartisan vote. Nearly 7 months later she is yet to receive a vote.

Due to the majority's ability to file for cloture, secret holds, etc are irrelevant. As such, I have decided to write to you, Senator Bond, and to the Senate Majority Leader daily until such time as this noncontroversial and qualified nominee is confirmed.

Sincerely,
