Senator Kyl: Judge Boyle Deserves Courtesy Of A Vote

Senator Kyl (R-Az), who serves on the Senate Judiciary Committee, published this article today urging the Senate to vote on Judge Boyle's nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. Judge Boyle was first nominated to the Fourth Circuit 15 years ago, in 1991, and was re-nominated in 2001. He finally received a hearing in March 2005, four years after he was re-nominated. Because of a filibuster threat, his nomination did not move to the Senate floor, and President Bush had to re-nominate him again earlier this month.
