WASHINGTON, Feb. 26 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Barack Obama's pick for U.S. attorney general Loretta Lynch on Thursday passed a procedural vote in the Senate Committee on the Judiciary and was allowed to advance in the Senate for a full-floor confirmation1 voting later on.
Thursday's vote was 12-8, with favors including three Republicans in the committee backing her
nomination2.
Though Lynch's confirmation hearing began in late January, the voting was
postponed3 by two weeks by the Republican-controlled Senate Judiciary Committee over Republicans' concerns about the nominee's public support for President Obama's contested 2014 executive actions for immigration.

Democrats4 have long demanded that the
controversy5 over Obama's 2014 immigration policies should be stripped off Lynch's nomination battle, accusing Republicans of
deliberately6 "slow- walking the vote".
The
partisan7 battles over Obama's executive actions on immigration have also
affected8 a funding bill for the Department of Homeland Security, which is facing a partial shutdown should the Congress fails to pass a funding bill in less than two days.
