President Trump nominated a new slate of 11 judges for the federal bench.
The list sent to the Senate for confirmation includes the nomination of Colorado Supreme Court Justice Allison Eid to the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, the post previously held by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch, Trump’s pick for the U.S. Supreme Court.
Carrie Severino, chief counsel and policy director of the Judicial Crisis Network, complimented Trump’s latest round of judicial nominations, writing in the conservative National Review that “it’s a fantastic list, again drawing from his previous success from his Supreme Court list… many of the nominees are well known in the conservative legal movement…” Severino said that these nominations are a “major victory” for Americans concerned with constitutionalism in the judiciary.
