Grassley pushes GOP to vote on criminal justice reform

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley on Tuesday called on the Senate to take up and pass a criminal justice reform bill that’s backed by the Trump administration, and he said it would be worth approving fewer of President Trump’s judicial nominees to get it done.

“If McConnell will bring this up, it will pass overwhelmingly and he can do it in a way — several different ways — to shorten the time it would take,” Grassley said at an event hosted by the Washington Post. “This can be done in three or four days real easily.”
