Senate to vote Monday to advance criminal justice overhaul

Politico --------- The Senate will vote on Monday to advance a bipartisan criminal justice reform bill, putting the legislation on track to be completed next week. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) moved Thursday to set up votes to open up debate on the legislation, which will then be followed by a limited number of amendments. McConnell’s parliamentary move fulfills a promise to President Donald Trump to consider the bill in the lame duck session after the GOP leader publicly and privately surmised that the Senate didn’t have enough time to complete it.
