California Sen. Dianne Feinstein is taking over as the Democratic Party’s top ranking member on the Judiciary Committee as it prepares for a Supreme Court battle over the vacancy created by Justice Antonin Scalia’s death.

In a Wednesday statement about her forthcoming ascension to the post, Feinstein expressed displeasure that the committee did not consider President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, Merrick Garland. She also vowed to strictly scrutinize President-elect Trump’s actions and nominees going forward.
