Senate Democrats are prepared to work with Senate Republicans to evaluate the incoming president’s nominations, ensuring advice and consent as stated by current Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y. Schumer emphasized that the Senate’s role in confirming nominees must be respected, regardless of party control or who is president.
