Solis Vote Coming Thursday


They'll vote, but I'm sure some of the dead enders will throw hissy fits.

"Organized labor had been told not to expect a vote on the confirmation of Rep. Hilda Solis to be Labor Secretary until after a brief Congressional recess," Marc Ambinder reports.

"Now, labor's being told that Solis's vote will take place tomorrow at 2:00 pm. One White House official says that scenario 'looks good' but wouldn't confirm it any further; another said that there is a mark-up scheduled but no vote."

The movement comes after key Republicans said they were not going to block Solis' nomination over her husband's tax issues.
