Description

The Senate Committee on the Judiciary holds an executive business meeting on February 17, 2022.

The agenda includes Sunshine Suzanne Sykes, who has been nominated by President Joe Biden to be United States District Judge for the Central District of California.

Sykes is a citizen of the Navajo Nation. She appeared before the committee for her confirmation hearing on February 1, 2022.

At the business meeting, the committee did not take immediate action on Sykes or the two other nominees listed on the agenda due to a recess declared in the U.S. Senate, according to Sen. Dick Durban (D-Illinois), chairman of the committee.
