Today, U.S. Senator Josh Hawley spoke on the Senate floor, highlighting the winning records of Missouri’s four district court nominees and thanking President Donald Trump for returning constitutionalists to the federal bench after the appointment of radical judges under President Joe Biden.
“Each of these four individuals will soon take his or her place on the federal bench, and I am confident will be a great credit, not just to my state but to the United States, where I hope they will serve as federal judges for a very long time to come,” Senator Hawley said.
The Senate is poised to confirm the following nominees, starting next week.
- Joshua M. Divine, to be United States District Judge for the Eastern and Western Districts of Missouri;
- Maria A. Lanahan, to be United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri;
- Zachary M. Bluestone, to be United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri; and
- Cristian M. Stevens, to be United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri
