In the United States Senate, a “blue slip” is a form used by the Senate Judiciary Committee to request the views of home-state senators on a presidential nominee for a federal judgeship or, in some cases, a U.S. Attorney position in their state. Although it appears to be a routine administrative step, the blue slip process can serve as a significant political tool, potentially allowing a single senator to block a nomination.
