Now that Jackson is the nominee, Senate Democrats are moving fast to get her confirmed as quickly as possible.
现在杰克逊被提名，参议院民主党人正在迅速行动，以尽快使她得以任命。
Dick Durbin, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has said publicly that he wants this done by Easter recess, which is scheduled to start on April 9th.
参议院司法委员会主席迪克·德宾曾公开表示，他希望在定于4月9日开始的复活节休会前完成这项工作。
Democrats have the votes that they need to confirm Jackson, so it might not even be in the interests of Republicans to put up much resistance, especially because it won't change the balance of power on the court.
民主党人有足够的票数来确认杰克逊的任命，因此，共和党人甚至可能不会有太大的阻力，尤其是因为这不会改变最高法院的权力平衡。
But issues will get raised -- about Jackson's background and her career, about her decisions as a judge, and about how she would view her role on the Supreme Court.
但是问题会被提出来——关于杰克逊的背景和她的职业生涯，关于她作为法官的决定，以及她如何看待自己在最高法院的角色。
