On the President’s nominees

The President chooses federal judges, cabinet secretaries, ambassadors and military officers, and the Senate decides whether each one gets the job. Most are confirmed by voice vote, which records no one’s position. In the 119th Congress (2025–2026) the Senate put 224 confirmations to a recorded vote, and confirmed every one.

Their votes to confirm, of the 186 recorded votes held while they served

  • Yes: 167
  • No: None
  • Missed: 19

Those votes covered 416 nominees, because the Senate sometimes confirms many in a single vote.
