Third US Senate Democrat to vote against Muslim judicial nominee Mangi
By Nate Raymond
March 28, 20241:47 PM EDTUpdated March 28, 2024

March 28 (Reuters) - Adeel Mangi's chances of winning confirmation in the U.S. Senate to become the nation's first Muslim federal appeals court judge have been diminished after Senator Jacky Rosen of Nevada became the latest Democrat to publicly announce she would vote against him.
Rosen announced her opposition to President Joe Biden's newest nominee to the Philadelphia-based 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals late Wednesday, after two other Democrats said they would join with Senate Republicans to vote against confirming him.
