This week, that senator has a name.
As reported by Stars & Stripes, Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn, is the lawmaker responsible for the stall. Blackburn argued Tuesday that she will delay confirmation until the agency indefinitely. That is, until VA provides its official position on the cost and implementation of the Comprehensive and Overdue Support for Troops of War Act of 2021.
The confirmations impacted by the hold or stall include:
Donald Remy: nominated to be the Deputy Secretary (top middle)
Matthew Quinn: nominated to be under secretary for memorial affairs (bottom right)
Maryanne Donaghy: nominated to lead VA’s whistleblower protection office (bottom middle)
