WASHINGTON, D.C. –U.S. Senators Debbie Stabenow and Gary Peters are accepting applications from qualified persons interested in nomination for federal judge, United States Attorney or United States Marshal in the Eastern and Western Districts of Michigan. Email judicialnominations@stabenow.senate.gov. Applicants will be notified of deadlines once vacancies are announced.
It is the Senate’s tradition for both home state Senators to recommend judicial nominees to the President for consideration.
After someone is nominated, it is Senate procedure for the home state senators to agree to consideration of a nominee before the Senate Judiciary Committee conducts hearings and votes. This is commonly called the “blue slip” process. Nominations approved by the Committee are then considered by the full Senate.
