Here’s the list so far:
Each of us in the Senate has a duty to cast our vote on the @SCOTUSnom—we should have the opportunity to uphold that sacred duty. #DoYourJob
— Senator Tom Carper (@SenatorCarper) April 19, 2016
Our Constitution requires the Senate to advise & vote on a #SCOTUSnom. Time for GOP leaders to #DoYourJob & hold a hearing on @SCOTUSnom.
— Senator Jack Reed (@SenJackReed) May 2, 2016
Hawaii's Clare Connors & other judicial nominees deserve a confirmation vote. Taking to the floor to call on Republicans to #DoYourJob

— Senator Chris Coons (@ChrisCoons) March 28, 2016
There's no reason beyond partisan politics to deprive the American people of a fully staffed #SCOTUS. #DoYourJob

Hold hearings, ask the tough questions, and finally have a vote. Let’s show the American people that we can do our job. – Cantwell
— Sen. Maria Cantwell (@SenatorCantwell) March 17, 2016
We're not asking Senate #GOP to vote 'yea' on any judicial nominees. Just asking them to allow a simple vote. Not a heavy lift. #DoYourJob
— Senator Ben Cardin (@SenatorCardin) April 26, 2016
The president will nominate a new #SCOTUS justice. Then Senate has an obligation to vote—not obstruct. #DoYourJob

I urge my colleagues to #DoYourJob & give the SCOTUS nominee the timely, fair consideration he deserves
