Trump和Lee敦促参议院暂停休会,以确认135个任命, Trump and Lee urge Senate to skip recess to confirm 135 appointments, citing delays by Democrats.

总统特朗普(Trump)和参议员李麦克(Mike Lee)正在敦促参议院取消8月的休会, President Trump and Senator Mike Lee are urging the Senate to cancel its August recess to confirm 135 pending presidential appointments, arguing that Senate Democrats are causing delays. Lee建议参议院要么必须确认这些被提名人,要么允许Trump进行休会任命。 Lee suggests the Senate must either confirm these nominees or allow Trump to make recess appointments. 之所以发出这一呼吁,是因为有人批评说,参议院的工作不足以确认特朗普的提名人选。 The call is made against a backdrop of criticism that the Senate is not working enough to confirm Trump's nominees.
