Update on Kagan Nomination

The hearings of the Senate Committee on the Judiciary into the nomination of Solicitor General Elena Kagan to the United States Supreme Court concluded on July 1. There is a consensus that nothing said at the hearings will derail her nomination.

The Senate committee is in recess this week. It will meet again on July 13. First on the agenda is the Kagan nomination. It is expected that the nomination will be voted out of committee and head for a vote by the full Senate.
