ms. simmons, according to a "the washington post" political appointee tracker, an average of four in 10 biden nominees have been waiting on senate confirmation. this is not uncommon. every recent president has experienced delays. but the delays, they just appear to be getting longer and longer. the time it takes for congress to confirm presidential nominees has been growing during every single administration since president ronald reagan. you both mentioned several causes for delays when you presented your testimony to us. what do you believe are the most significant reasons for these delays and what actions from congress would you -- should we consider to address them? maybe give me a priority or two, what you think is really significant that we should be thinking about. ms. simmons: thank you, mr. chairman. from the perspective of the partnership, the sheer volume makes it very challenging and kr-pbts to just a greater bottle neck. so -- contributes to just a greater bottle neck. we would encourage fewer positions. we think it would allow the senate to focus on positions that most warrant y

madam speaker, i now yield three minutes to the distinguished gentlelady from washington, a distinguished member of the committee, ms. jayapal. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman is recognized. jay lethal i rise -- ms. jayapal: i rise in support of the fair act. when companies enforce forced arbitration clauses, they choose every aspect of the process. they choose the mediator. they choose the location. and they choose the terms of the relief. this is a lose-lose scenario, and it disproportionately harms workers, particularly women and communities of color. it imposes enormous consequences for everyone. you sign a contract for a car repair, for car rental, for any consumer transaction. and hidden in those contracts, when you need that car rental, and hidden in those contracts is a prohibition from you taking any claim to court. no choice, no notion, even, for the majority of people that this fundamental right to that choice to sue an unscrupulous corporation is being taken away from you when you sign that contract. so i think of this bill, madam speaker, as a bill for the little guy or little woman. women and
