The US Senate Judiciary Committee Thursday voted 12-0 to advance Trump's Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett to the full Senate as Democrats boycotted the session.

Democratic senators refused to show up at the vote in protest against the rush to accept Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination for the Supreme Court seat left vacant by liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died on 18 September at the age of 87.
