UPDATE: It seems Burr is backing off.
It seems the Republicans are also blocking the nomination of another Asian American nominee: Tammy Duckworth. The culprit this time is North Carolina Junior Senator Richard Burr. It's still not clear why Burr would block Duckworth's nomination. He is up for re-election this cycle and his polling has been horrendous. Perhaps he's just looking for a platform to run on. Something tells me going up against this Iraqi war veteran is the wrong fight.
Because the Senate is in recess, no vote is possible until April 21.
