U.S. Senator Deb Fischer (R-Neb.) released the following statement today after the Senate voted to confirm Leonard Steven (Steve) Grasz to serve on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit:\r\n\r\nSteve Grasz exemplifies the qualities the American people seek in a judge: keen intellect, even judicial temperament, and steadfast commitment to the rule of law. By confirming Steve today, the U.S. Senate is helping to install on the Eighth Circuit a capable jurist who has earned bipartisan respect and admiration from those who know him best. Senator Sasse and I were pleased to work closely with Steve throughout his confirmation process and I wish him well during what Im sure will be a long and dedicated career of service to our country.\r\n\r\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.fischer.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/news?ID=BE9FB86A-C589-4DE2-B1C3-13A4C336CCF8"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.704366946592927, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
