119th Congress · Senate
Presidential nominations
Where the nominations stand
Read this first. These are the civilian nominations the President sent to the Senate in the 119th Congress, as Congress.gov records them. Military promotion lists (1,347 records) are not shown. A nomination can be confirmed, withdrawn, returned or still pending, and the status is the one on Congress.gov’s latest-action line. Counts here describe the Senate’s record, not anyone’s merit, and PORKER does not score senators or nominees.

Evidence
- What is counted
- Civilian nominations (Congress.gov “isCivilian”) of the 119th Congress. Military promotion lists are excluded.
- Status
- Taken word for word from each record’s latest-action line. “Pending” means that line shows none of confirmed, withdrawn, returned or rejected.
- Votes
- Senate roll calls are linked through the nomination number on the Senate vote record.
- Groups
- PORKER groups nominations by keywords in the Congress.gov description (for example “Ambassador”) and the listed organisation. The grouping is PORKER’s, not an official category.
