Ryan Park, Biden Court Pick Stalled In The Senate, Withdraws His Nomination

LOADING ERROR LOADING WASHINGTON — Ryan Park, tapped by President Joe Biden for an appeals court seat, said Thursday that he’s withdrawing his nomination after it stalled in the Senate. “Park displayed the most critical attributes of a judicial nominee in his hearing: intelligence, diligence, ethics, independence and especially measured judicial temperament.” Tobias said Sen. Thom Tillis had complained that the White House didn’t properly consult him about Park’s nomination, which was to a court seat based in North Carolina. “There’s still time to finish every confirmation, including all four circuit court nominations.” Another group, Demand Justice, spent Thursday putting up posters around Capitol Hill and driving a mobile billboard about the Capitol building urging senators to do “whatever it takes” to confirm all of Biden’s judges before President-elect Donald Trump is inaugurated. The Senate must deliver for them in these final days.” President Joe Biden's appeals court nominee Ryan Park is withdrawing from consideration as his nomination languishes on the Senate floor.
