President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for attorney general, former Florida attorney general Pam Bondi (R), is testifying in her first of two scheduled confirmation hearings Wednesday. While Bondi isn’t considered among the Trump nominees that the Republican-majority Senate is likely to potentially reject, her testimony is being closely watched.

Democratic senators plan to question President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for attorney general about her history as a lobbyist and the potential conflicts of interest, a clear display of how the party’s early attacks on Trump 2.0 are focused on corporate influence over the new administration.

During one contentious exchange in her confirmation hearing, Democratic Sen. Alex Padilla of California asked Bondi whether she found any evidence of widespread fraud. The senator repeatedly pressed her for a yes or no answer but did not give Bondi an opportunity to expound on her time with the campaign.

Trump said Bondi would “refocus the DOJ to its intended purpose of fighting Crime, and Making America Safe Again” in her role as attorney general.
