McConnell says Republicans won't help replace Feinstein on Judiciary Committee.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein on the powerful Senate Judiciary Committee, ending any hopes among Democrats that Republicans would allow them to push through judicial nominations as the California Democrat recovers from an illness.
Democrats need Feinstein to help push through President Biden's judicial nominees, since the Judiciary Committee is evenly split between the parties in her absence. Calling Feinstein a"titanic figure" and a"stateswoman," McConnell said that the Judiciary Committee has continued to function without her.
