Yesterday President Trump sent a large number of renominations to the Senate, a step required after Democrats refused to consent to last Senate session's nominations rolling over into the new session. As reported by the Kansas City Star, these included the renomination of Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback to be Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom.
Last week, the President renominated 21 individuals for federal judgeships. Among them is Matthew J. Kacsmaryk, nominated for Northern District of Texas. Kacsmaryk specializes in religious liberty litigation as Deputy General Counsel at the First Liberty Institute. Dallas Morning News reports on the renomination.
