Biden Will Reportedly Nominate Judge Merrick Garland As Attorney General

President-elect Joe Biden will reportedly tap federal Judge Merrick Garland as attorney general. 

Garland is being picked over former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates and former Alabama Democratic Senator Doug Jones. 

President Obama nominated Garland to the U.S. Supreme Court in 2016 but Senate Republicans refused to consider him. 

GOP leaders claimed that a Supreme Court vacancy should not be filled during a presidential election year. 

President Trump filled the vacancy with federal judge Neil Gorsuch after taking office.

Garland is a veteran U.S. appeals court judge in the nation's capital.
