Democrats in the Senate are delaying hearing for a key nominee of President-elect Donald Trump, according to a report.
Axios reported Tuesday afternoon that Democrats were forcing a delay of former Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, Trump's nominee for director of national intelligence, saying she failed to provide the necessary vetting materials, such as an FBI background check, ethics disclosure or pre-hearing questionnaire, according to Axios.
Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, reportedly took issue specifically with GOP requests to hold Gabbard's hearing early next week. The hearing could be pushed to late next week.
Republicans accused Democrats of playing games, according to the report.
