Senate to vote on key Trump nominee after Democrats hold contentious overnight debate
Fox News
The Senate is expected to vote on the nomination of Russell Vought to lead the Office of Management and Budget after Democrats are likely to hold the floor for 30 hours.
While many Trump nominees have received bipartisan support, Vought's nomination has been controversial among Democratic lawmakers who are opposed due to his stance on the Impoundment Control Act – a 1974 law that reinforces Congress’ power of the purse.

On Wednesday, the Senate voted to advance Vought's nomination to a final vote on the floor, prompting a 30-hour, overnight debate period that Democrats vowed to use entirely for protest.
