In a 53-44 vote, the U.S. Senate yesterday confirmed President Biden’s nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson, the federal district judge who has been assigned to two closely watched 340B-related lawsuits, for a seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
Jackson, who is considered a serious contender for a U.S. Supreme Court position under a Biden administration, is currently assigned to the lawsuits filed by community health centers’ and HIV/AIDS clinics’ separate lawsuits against the U.S. Health and Human Services Department (HHS) regarding the 340B program’s administrative dispute resolution process. Both cases are stayed for now, and joint status reports by the plaintiffs and defendants in each case are due this Friday, June 18.
