STORYLINE:
U.S. senators voted on Monday to send the nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to serve in the Supreme Court for floor debate and votes.
Three Republicans joined Democrats for a 53-47 vote to discharge Jackson's nomination to the full Senate after the Judiciary Committee deadlocked in their voting.
It was reportedly the first time the Senate has had to take the procedural step for a Supreme Court nominee since 1853.
Monday's vote put Jackson on track to be confirmed as the first African American female justice on the Supreme Court by the end of the week.
