EAST TEXAS HISTORICAL JOURNAL 51 SAM RAYBURN AND THE RULES COMMITTEE CHANGE OF 1961 by James Smallwood In the last months of the Eisenhower Administration, Sam Raybwn of Texas, Speaker of the House of Representatives, encountered growing opposition to reform legislation. Sometimes called a populist, sometimes a liberal, and sometimes a moderate-regaI'dless of classification, Rayburn in forty-six years of continuous service in the House established a record for positive achievement, but in the Eighty-Sixth Congress, which met in 1959, the Conunittee on Rules blocked the Democratic legislative program even though the Democrats were in the majority.1 This opposition to progressive legislation challenged the Speaker's long record of leadership. lndeed, RaybmD had an impressive public career. Born in Roane County, Tennessee; on January 6, 1882, he moved to Texas during his youth and received his education at East Texas College at Commerce and The University of Texas Law School at Austin.

  • Supreme Court Nominations Not Confirmed, 1789 to the Present Name Redacted Analyst in American National Government
    Supreme Court Nominations Not Confirmed, 1789 to the Present name redacted Analyst in American National Government August 20, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov RL31171 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Supreme Court Nominations Not Confirmed, 1789 to the Present Summary Since 1789, Presidents have submitted 160 nominations to Supreme Court positions. Of these, 36 were not confirmed by the Senate. The 36 nominations represent 31 individuals whose names were sent forward to the Senate by Presidents (some individuals were nominated more than once). Of the 31 individuals who were not confirmed the first time they were nominated, however, six were later nominated again and confirmed. The Supreme Court nominations discussed here were not confirmed for a variety of reasons, including Senate opposition to the nominating President, nominee’s views, or incumbent Court; senatorial courtesy; perceived political unreliability of the nominee; perceived lack of ability; interest group opposition; and fear of altering the balance of the Court. The Senate Committee on the Judiciary has played an important role in the confirmation process, particularly since 1868. All but the most recent of these nominations have been the subject of extensive legal, historical, and political science writing, a selected list of which is included in this report. This report will be updated as warranted by events. Congressional Research Service Supreme Court Nominations Not Confirmed, 1789 to the Present Contents

The Johnson Administration-Judicial Appointments-1963-1966* Harold W. Chaset I. THE KENNEDY SELECTIONS When Lyndon B. Johnson became President seven appoint- ments to the federal bench made by President Kennedy were still awaiting confirmation.' Since only one of these appointees, Homer Thornberry, had been confirmed by the Senate prior to the assassination, Johnson could have withdrawn the names of the other six and, presumably, could have even refused to for- mally appoint Thornberry. However, with understandable and admirable loyalty to the late President, President Johnson pro- ceeded with the formalities required to effectuate the Kennedy nominations. Unfortunately for him, two of the seven nominees turned out to be highly controversial. A. DAvm RABiNoviTz After President Kennedy had nominated David Rabinovitz of Sheboygan to the federal district bench in Wisconsin, he let it be known that he was for Rabinovitz "all the way."2 However, neither of Wisconsin's Democratic senators favored the appoint- ment.3 In addition, the ABA's Standing Committee on Federal Judiciary was vehemently opposed to the appointment and rated Rabinovitz as unqualified for the post.

  • Actions by the Senate, the Judiciary Committee, and the President
    Supreme Court Nominations, 1789 to 2020: Actions by the Senate, the Judiciary Committee, and the President Updated February 23, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL33225 Supreme Court Nominations, 1789 to the Present Summary The process of appointing Supreme Court Justices has undergone changes over two centuries, but its most basic feature, the sharing of power between the President and Senate, has remained unchanged. To receive a lifetime appointment to the Court, a candidate must, under the “Appointments Clause” of the Constitution, first be nominated by the President and then confirmed by the Senate. A key role also has come to be played midway in the process by the Senate Judiciary Committee. Table 1 of this report lists and describes actions taken by the Senate, the Senate Judiciary Committee, and the President on all Supreme Court nominations, from 1789 through 2020. The table provides the name of each person nominated to the Court and the name of the President making the nomination. It also tracks the dates of formal actions taken, and time elapsing between these actions, by the Senate or Senate Judiciary Committee on each nomination, starting with the date that the Senate received the nomination from the President. Of the 44 Presidents in the history of the United States, 41 have made nominations to the Supreme Court. They made a total of 164 nominations, of which 127 (77%) received Senate confirmation.
