The Senate confirmed three nominations: David Leibowitz, U.S. District Court judge for the Southern District Florida; Jacqueline Becerra, U.S. District Court judge for the Southern District of Florida; and Hampton Dellinger, special counsel to the Office of Special Counsel. Off the floor, negotiations on federal funding continued as Congress faced a midnight on March 1 deadline, when about 20 percent of the federal government would be forced to shut down. Also, if no deal was reached by March 8, a full government shutdown could take place.
