Unanimous Consent Request--S. Res. 808 (Executive Calendar)

A Senate resolution (S. Res. 808) to formally condemn federal Judge Eleanor Ross of the Northern District of Georgia, following an investigation that found she had a relationship with a police official in her office and then lied to investigators. Senator Blackburn asked for the Senate to pass it by unanimous consent, saying it does not impeach the judge and that Democrats were blocking it to protect an Obama-appointed judge. Senator Durbin objected, saying the Senate has never condemned a judge and that under the Constitution the House must first investigate and impeach; he said judging her conduct now could prejudice a possible later impeachment trial in the Senate. No consent was reached, so the resolution was not adopted.Written by AI from the debate. Updated .
