People For's work on supporting Biden judges and tracking the negative consequences of appointing Trump judges was reviewed by The Bulwark.
The progressive advocacy group People For the American Way recently highlighted sixteen legal cases, all from just last month, to show the importance of rulings being issued by President Joe Biden’s picks for the federal judiciary. They addressed issues ranging from immigration law to gun safety to workers’ rights.
PFAW, founded by the late television producer Norman Lear, has long kept a close eye on the federal judiciary, tracking what it considers the courts’ rightward lurch resulting from former President Donald Trump’s judicial picks and their center-left movement under Biden. By the PFAW’s tally, the Senate had confirmed 190 of Biden’s picks for federal district and appellate courts as of April 3; at the same point in his administration, Trump had succeeded in appointing 193 judges. (By the end of Trump’s four-year term, he’d had 234 judges confirmed, including his three Supreme Court justices.)
