Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., shared a roundup on X of where confirmations stand as of Tuesday night.
A handful of Republican senators chimed in on the pace and promised to keep it up until all nominees are confirmed.
".@SenateGOP is delivering results. Despite Democrat obstruction, we're confirming @POTUS' nominees at a strong pace—faster than in the Biden admin or first Trump admin. I’ll keep fighting to confirm President Trump’s team," Sen. Katie Britt, R-Ala., wrote on X.
Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mon., said the chamber is "ahead of schedule and not slowing down."
The last administration to have all nominees quickly confirmed was former President George W. Bush, whose entire Cabinet was in place by Feb. 1, according to Trump's First 100 Days
