The Senate confirmed its 200th federal judge under President Donald Trump Wednesday, a key milestone in Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s push to reshape the judiciary

.

“There will not be a single court vacancy anywhere in the nation for the first time in at least 40 years,” McConnell said. “Our work with the administration to renew our federal courts is not a partisan or political victory. It’s a victory for the rule of law and for the Constitution itself.”They also argued Wilson was inappropriate to serve, citing serious concerns about his record on voting rights.

“Judge Wilson has been an ardent supporter of restrictive voting measures, including voter ID laws that disproportionately harm minority voters, and he has shown a pattern of dismissing legitimate concerns from voting rights groups,” they wrote. In a statement, Collins said Wilson’s comments about the Affordable Care Act as “perverse” and "illegitimate” raise “doubts about his ability to rule impartially on matters where he holds very strong personal views.”
