JUST IN: Senate Advances 74 Trump Nominees In One Swift Move

In a significant procedural victory, the Senate just cleared the path for dozens of Trump nominees to be confirmed.

A total of 74 appointees were advanced in a single en bloc vote.

The final vote in the Senate was 50-47.

Watch the moment the measure advanced here:

We are well into the second year of President Trump’s second term.

Yet, there are still over 100 Trump nominees pending confirmation.

It’s great to see the Senate finally moving towards clearing out a major chunk of that backlog.

The Senate website provided a list of some of the specific nominations:

This batch contains 74 of President Trump’s well-qualified nominations, including:

17 ambassadorships

4 U.S. attorneys

4 U.S. marshals

1 deputy secretary

4 under secretaries

12 assistant secretaries

The commissioner of labor statistics

The administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)

The administrator of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA)

The deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) (U.S. Congress: S.Res. 817 – accessed 7/28/26)

This batch will bring the total number of civilian nominations confirmed en bloc since Senate Republicans’ rules reform to 375 nominations – accounting for about 63% of those confirmed in President Trump’s second term.

To be clear, the Senate’s vote on Thursday only advanced this block of nominees. They still have to be confirmed in a final vote — which is expected to happen later this week.

This move comes at a time when the confirmation of President Trump’s pick for Attorney General, Todd Blanche, is in peril thanks to two RINOs.
