Democrats are deciding whether to help Republicans confirm several Trump nominations, or force the body to stay in session next month. Normally the Senate would break from its labors to take an extended August recess, allowing members to leave DC and catch up on work in their home states. But this year may be different with Republicans under pressure to confirm Trump nominees, and Democrats divided on whether to help expedite the process or force delays. Some Democrats are holding out for concessions from Republicans in exchange for their cooperation and others say they want to slow down the confrmations, even if that means nobody gets to break for the August recess.
