Senate Democrats are gearing up for a prolonged protest against the nomination of Russell Vought to lead the White House Office of Management and Budget. The protest is set to begin on Wednesday afternoon and continue until Thursday evening, as confirmed by a Democratic leadership aide.
The protest will kick off after Vought clears the final procedural hurdle on Wednesday afternoon, which will limit debate to 30 hours before the final confirmation vote on Thursday night. Vought, known for his staunchly conservative views and ties to Project 2025, has faced criticism from Democrats.
