Senators John Cornyn (R-TX) and Patty Murphy (D-WA) have reached a compromise on the human trafficking bill and it's proposed abortion amendment that will allow bipartisan support. Passage of the bill is expected on Wednesday, opening the way for Republican leadership to then bring up Loretta Lynch's confirmation vote.
This was done in the true spirit of compromise. It turned "political process at its worst" to "political process at its best." The two senators and their staffs deserved praise for persevering in the face of partisan bickering to find a middle ground that allowed each side to claim partial victory.
Loretta Lynch should be confirmed by the end of the week.
