Appointment of ACIP members is usually a lengthy, rigorous process to ensure adequate expertise to minimize bias. There is no way the newly announced members have gone through the usual levels of scrutiny to minimize conflicts. A slapdash process will not be seen as legitimate.

A group of us have arrived on the Senate floor to challenge our colleagues - on both sides of the aside - to rise to this moment and jointly condemn what has happened to Sen. Padilla. Yes we still need to collect the full facts, but this appears to be a defining moment for the country.
