state your case
his appointment is good because the swamp doesnt like him, is that what youre saying?
I am saying that Trump nominated Stephen Parente to be in charge of healthcare policy.
He had written a book on how to fix the system.
ok. so theyre "distracting" from that?
No hearings. No vote. No discussion of his book anywere.
@Mandatory Carry I'm here
do assistant secretaries need to be voted on?
Not by the Republicans and not by the Democrats.
Yes.
or are they appointed?
They usually have committee hearings.
Senate confirmation.
so there was a vote then
Nope. No vote.
then hes not assistant secretary
There is supposed to be a vote.
pick one bro
He was nominated.
ok so hes nominated, but not voted in yet.
theres a backlog on confirmations due to dem obstruction
im sure hes in line like everyone else.
LOL. Why don't you actually check instead of guessing.
There is not going to be a vote.
youre the one speculating bro
with your heavy duty tin foil hat
theres a fucking backlog lol
it aint that hard bro
Not for Assistant Secretaries.
no?
No.
is it not one commitee that confirms nominations?
Nope. Each department has a particular committee.
and then it moves to the floor does it not for a senate wide vote?
If it ever gets out of committee, yes. This will not get out of committee. If it were going to, it would have already.
so its currently in committee?
No. It is nowhere.
can you link me where it says he was nominated?
so why are they "distracting" a nomination that happened in 2017?
