CDF Urges the Senate to Confirm Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court

As an organization rooted in the civil rights and children’s rights movements, we strongly support Jackson’s nomination and believe that, based on her qualifications, diverse experience, and strong judicial record, she will vigorously protect the rights our children and families have fought tirelessly for and, as a past public defender, bring a unique perspective that is needed to the bench. Her historic and long overdue nomination as the first Black woman to serve on the Supreme Court will have ripple effects for Black women, youth, and girls around the nation.
