                         JUDICIAL CONFIRMATIONS

  Mr. GRASSLEY. Madam President, the Senate will soon cross the 
milestone of 200 judicial confirmations since President Trump came to 
the Presidency in 2017. These have been nominees in the molds of 
Justice Scalia, just as the President promised nearly 4 years ago. They 
will strictly interpret the Constitution and Federal statutes. Their 
decisions will be driven by what the law actually says, not their own 
personal policy preferences.
  This landmark achievement is the result of the President keeping his 
word and the unwavering determination of Leader McConnell, Chairman 
Graham, and the Republican conference.
  In the hands of these many strict constructionist judges, the future 
of American jurisprudence is very, very bright.
  I yield the floor.
