Judiciary Dem Flags Missing Documents In Sessions' AG Questionaire
The top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee flagged Tuesday a number of what she believed to be missing documents in Sen. Jeff Sessions' (R-AL) Attorney General nomination questionnaire. In a letter to the Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley (R-IA), the incoming ranking member Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) also asked for more time to review the Sessions' records.
Grassley had previously signaled he wanted to expedite Sessions' confirmation hearings for before President-elect Donald Trump is inaugurated. They are scheduled to begin Jan. 10, according to NPR.
As part of the confirmation process, nominees that come through the Judiciary Committee often submit questionnaires and other documents for committee members to review ahead of the hearings. Sessions submitted his confirmation documents Friday evening, the letter said.

According to Feinstein's letter, Sessions' submission was missing copies of a number of speeches he has given over the years, including a a speech at an event called Restoration Weekend from 2003 and a 2007 speech for an event with the Federation for American Immigration Reform, a group that seeks to decrease immigration.
