Without F.B.I. vetting, lawmakers and the public may never learn if nominees are trustworthy or have issues that compromise their loyalty to the U.S.
The Senate shouldn't accept efforts to bypass F.B.I. background checks and confirmation via mass recess appointments, a practice unacceptable in past administrations.
Throughout our work on the Judiciary Committee, F.B.I. background checks were essential; nominations were never considered without them, impacting national security directly.
Confidential handling of nominees' issues allowed bipartisan cooperation; the information was carefully navigated to avoid partisan gain, ensuring integrity in the confirmation process.
