Fetterman gives 'blue slip' to Trump judge nominee in Pennsylvania [View all]
U.S. Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) is once again making waves as he bucks Democrat norms and gives the go-ahead for President Donald Trump's pick for federal judge in Pennsylvania to move forward.
Last week, the Pennsylvania member of Congress turned in his form, colloquially known as a "blue slip," to the Senate Judiciary Committee, clearing the way for Trump-nominee Antonio Pozos to move forward to possibly serve as judge on the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, according to Reuters.
Fetterman hasn't commented on the move, and ultimately, Pozos still has to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
