Summary
SRES 384 is a procedural resolution that authorizes the Senate Majority Leader to bring up to 15 nominations for consideration all at once, rather than individually. The nominations must be for positions below cabinet level and cannot be for federal judges or Supreme Court justices. The nominations must have been reported by the same Senate committee and placed on the calendar, and they would be considered using the same procedures as a single nomination.
