总统唐纳德·特朗普周一表示,他正提名美国司法部民事司的联邦程序分支副司长埃里克·汉密尔顿,提升为终身任期的法官,并曾在法庭上为总统优先政策提供了关键辩护;同时他还提名前最高法院首席大法官约翰·罗伯茨的法庭书记员约瑟夫·法利维,提升为美国北部地区法院的联邦法官。
President Donald Trump said on Monday he was nominating two lawyers in the US Department of Justice to serve as federal judges, including one who had played a key role in defending some of the Republican president's top priorities in court. The president announced the two new district court nominees after Senate Republicans laid the groundwork for a blitz of proceedings to confirm as many of Trump's judicial nominees as possible in the weeks after the November 3 midterm elections, which Democrats hope will hand them control of the chamber.
特朗普总统在宣布这两位新任联邦地区法院法官提名人后,紧随参议院共和党人为在11月3日中间选举后数周内加速确认特朗普提名的司法人员而铺平道路,民主党希望这些选举能使他们掌控参议院。
Trump said he is nominating Eric Hamilton, who serves as deputy assistant attorney general for the federal programs branch of the Justice Department's Civil Division, to become a life-tenured judge in Nebraska, where he previously was the state's solicitor general.
特朗普表示,他提名汉密尔顿,他在司法部民事司负责联邦程序分支,此前担任内布拉斯加州的州司法长官,现将提名为内布拉斯加州的联邦地区法院法官,并称其在司法部工作中“在法庭上为我们政府最重要的政策进行了‘非凡的辩护’”,这些政策包括特朗普实施的全球关税、限制出生公民权的举措,以及派遣国民警卫队至包括洛杉矶在内的城市以及解散美国教育部的举动。
Trump said Hamilton had done a "phenomenal job" in his DOJ post "defending our Administration’s most important Policies in Court." Those policies have included Trump's imposition of global tariffs and efforts to curtail birthright citizenship, as well as his move to deploy National Guard troops to cities including Los Angeles and to dismantle the US Department of Education.
特朗普还表示,他提名约瑟夫·法利维,前最高法院首席大法官约翰·罗伯茨的法庭书记员,现任美国联邦检察官,将提名为美国北部地区法院的联邦法官。
Trump said he is also nominating Joseph Falvey, a former law clerk to Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, to serve as a federal judge in the Northern District of Indiana, where he currently works as a federal prosecutor.
这两位提名人预计将在参议院司法委员会近期为共和党人安排的11月10日和18日举行的两场听证会上接受审查,旨在在本届国会结束前尽快通过尽可能多的司法提名人。
The two nominees would likely be taken up during the second of the two hearings that the Republican-led Senate Judiciary Committee recently scheduled for November 10 and 18 in a push to have as many judges confirmed by the full Senate before the current Congress comes to an end.
如果民主党在中间选举中赢得参议院控制权,并在1月就职,白宫将面临更艰难的路径来确认特朗普提名的司法人员,他在第一任和第二任任期中帮助将司法制度的意识形态平衡向右转移,并确立了美国最高法院6-3保守派多数派。
If Democrats win control of the Senate during the midterms and take over leadership in January, the White House would face a harder road to secure confirmation of judicial nominees named by Trump, who during his first and second terms helped shift the judiciary's ideological balance to the right and secure a 6-3 conservative majority on the US Supreme Court.
特朗普在第一任期确认了234名司法人员。自特朗普于2025年1月重返白宫后,由共和党领导的参议院已确认56名法官,其中包括10名具有重要影响力的上诉法院法官。
Trump secured confirmation of 234 judicial nominees in his first term. Since Trump's return to the White House in January 2025, the Republican-led Senate has confirmed 56 judges, including 10 on the influential appeals courts.
