“Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson has made history today as the Senate confirmed her to the Supreme Court, making her the first Black woman justice. Throughout her confirmation process, Judge Jackson showed exactly why President Biden nominated her. She is a proven consensus builder, and one of our nation’s brightest legal minds with incomparable experience and a steadfast dedication to the rule of law.
