Durbin: Senate should be delivering pandemic aid, not SCOTUS confirmation

Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin is the Senate's second highest-ranking Democrat and a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, which supported the Supreme Court nomination of Amy Coney Barrett. Durbin joins Judy Woodruff to discuss why he has found the judicial confirmation process for Barrett “very troubling,” what he expects from her on the court and the “desperate” need for more coronavirus relief.
