President Donald Trump’s greatest first-term legacy was his reshaping of the federal judiciary. In four years, he appointed 174 district court judges, 54 appellate judges, and three Supreme Court Justices: Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett.
Senate Democrats spent the last four years under President Joe Biden trying to match that record. They confirmed 235 judges to Trump’s 234 — but far fewer among higher courts.
Trump now has four years to finish the job.
That’s why, just before Christmas, Biden vetoed a bill to create new judgeships around the country. Many federal courts are so backlogged that they simply need more manpower to process cases. The bipartisan bill was so uncontroversial that it passed the Senate unanimously.
But once it became clear that Donald Trump would be the president to start filling those new vacancies, Biden killed the bill.
We should not be surprised. The Left knows that the Judiciary is a key battleground in their Culture War against American values.
Conservatives have to win that ground. If we want to take back our country, we must take back our Courts.
And the only place to do that is in the U.S. Senate.
We already know that President Trump will nominate superstar judges. Senate Republicans must confirm them.
And they have to move fast!
The MAGA agenda President Trump is planning to sign on Day One is going to face left-wing lawsuits starting Day Two! If judges appointed by Joe Biden and Barack Obama hear those cases, they are going to stall Trump’s progress.
Senate Republicans have to fill every vacancy on the federal bench. And to do that, they must work more than three days a week!
Republicans retake the Senate Majority on January 3. Their first job will be hearings for Trump’s cabinet nominees. But once that’s done, the work of taking back our Courts begins.
This is a generational opportunity — and so the Left will put up an unprecedented fight.
Senate Conservatives Fund will follow Senate Republicans' judicial confirmation work very closely. We will report on their progress and any action grassroots conservatives can take to support this crucial project.
Thank you for being part of our team. We’re excited to continue our conservative momentum into the New Year!
