Washington D.C. – Following the White House’s announcement of President Biden’s latest slate of federal district court nominees, People For the American Way President Svante Myrick released the following statement:
“President Biden’s commitment to nominating outstanding federal judges continues with this slate of nominees for seats in Oregon, Hawaii, New Jersey and California. This group is highly qualified, diverse, and includes people with a deep commitment to making our justice system work for everyone, including nominees who have served as a public defender and an advocate for workers’ rights. Nominations like this make a real difference in people’s lives. The Senate should move quickly to confirm these individuals. We look forward to the White House’s continued efforts to fill all vacancies with quality nominees.”
