Senate Republicans urged Democrats to oppose Stone-Manning's confirmation, on account of her troubling history and lies to the Senate, unsuccessfully.

With mounting Democrat-caused crises in our country, Senate Democrats’ top priority is to confirm an eco-terrorist collaborator who lied to the Senate. Tracy Stone-Manning should never be the director of @BLMNational. Senate Republicans are united against this dangerous nominee.

? Conspired w/ eco-terrorists
? Threatened federal employees
? Lied to Congress
This is the person the President nominated to lead @BLMNational. Confirming her would be a huge mistake. I urge my Democrat colleagues to vote no. https://t.co/weQiBVZEoZ
