The Senate will vote to confirm Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett on Monday Oct. 26, a little over a week before the presidential election, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday.
"With regard to the Supreme Court justice ... we'll be voting to confirm justice-to-be Barrett next Monday," McConnell said during a weekly press conference.
"I think that will be another signature accomplishment in our effort to put on the courts, the federal courts, men and women that believe in the quaint notion that maybe the job of a judge is to actually follow the law," McConnell added.
