Udall Leads Fight for Vote on Nomination of William Martinez to U.S. District Court in Colorado
U.S. Senator Mark Udall urged his colleagues to end the partisan obstructionism that has caused a delay of the nomination of William Martinez to the U.S. District Court in Colorado and contributed to a serious and growing backlog in the federal courts in Colorado and across the country. The seat Martinez was nominated to fill has been open for almost two years, and at this point, the vacancy is considered a judicial emergency.
