Senate committee votes to advance Gabbard's nomination for director of national intelligence

From CNN’s Manu Raju and Ali Main

The Senate Intelligence Committee voted to advance Tulsi Gabbard’s nomination for director of national intelligence.

The vote was 9-8. A source familiar with the matter says the vote was along party lines.

Next, she’ll get a full vote in the Senate.

Some context: Gabbard could not have afforded to lose a single GOP vote on the committee. People close to Trump and those helping to confirm his nominees had been most concerned about Gabbard’s confirmation chances.

Earlier today, GOP Sen. Todd Young said he would support Gabbard’s nomination. Young said he sought “firm commitments” from Gabbard that will “advance our national security.” He also said he had extensive conversations with Vice President JD Vance, who worked with Gabbard to give assurances to win over his critical vote, according to a source familiar with the matter.
