Senate Republicans oppose, threatening a filibuster as Southern Democrats hedge statements while the chamber races to adjourn before early August. Fortas and Thornberry face scrutiny over civil rights rulings and other opinions, with potential for a lengthy confirmation battle.

Bechtel VP Kiely defended the projection as accurate within a small margin. Johnson pressed for a 10 percent fee reduction by the full BART board.
