Shortly afterwards, Rep. Dean Phillips of Minnesota tweeted that it is a "dereliction of duty" for Feinstein to remain in the Senate.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) is surrounded by reporters as she heads to the Senate Chamber for a vote in the U.S. Capitol on February 14, 2023 in Washington, DC.

Two more House Democrats are now calling on Feinstein to resign with as many as 12 federal judge nominees unable to advance because of Feinstein's absence.

New York Democratic congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said that Feinstein resigning is "unfortunately something that I think it is appropriate to consider.".

Several Republican Senators have already confirmed that they will not back the plans to temporarily replace Feinstein on the Judiciary Committee.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi also suggested calls for Feinstein to resign are sexist.
