    I have a rules change proposal to make the Senate more efficient. Harry Reid & a Democratic-controlled Senate enacted it as a temporary rule change in 2013 by a vote of 86-9. We should vote now to make it permanent. #GridlockReformhttps://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/mar/18/james-lankford-eyes-speeding-up-nominations-proces/ …

        If nominees were competent, nominated timely, capable of getting their documents submitted correctly, maybe confirmations would be moving faster. And there's a little thing called compromise. I hope the other senators have more sense than you & turn this down.

        Also, your guy keeps firing people (many he hired himself) which leads to more confirmations needed, adding to the backlog. Maybe be pickier about your "yes" if he's going to keep doing this.

        I would support this if it wasn’t in the context of such inappropriate nominees of the past year or so. Many had never even tried a case. Majority should not confirm uncontested in this situation.

        Lankford is a trumpy ass kisser..he has consistently voted in rotten judges, crappy wh appointments and idiots detrimental to our government. If we could impeach him and Inhofe believe me 3/4 of Oklahomans would..sit down and shut up.

        Thank you Senator for your initiative. However, let’s place your idea on hold because we do not want to give any additional power to the person currently occupying the Oval Office. I do not trust one thing this person does, especially selecting candidates for vital positions.

        You have proven to be deficient in the oversight responsibilities given the Legislative Branch. In fact, one might say you have been nothing but a rubber stamp for the Executive Branch. What part of co-equal do you not get?
