Biden’s first slate of judicial nominations include three Black women for appeals court vacancies. These nominations are a critical step toward getting more Black woman representation on our federal courts. #SheWillRise washingtonpost.com/local/legal-is…
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, who is on the #SheWillRise shortlist for SCOTUS, has been nominated the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, which is considered the second most powerful court in the country washingtonpost.com/local/legal-is…
Candace Jackson-Akiwumi, a former longtime federal public defender & current litigator in Washington has been nominated for the Chicago-based 7th Circuit #SheWillRise washingtonpost.com/local/legal-is…
Tiffany Cunningham, an Intellectual-property lawyer in Chicago has been nominated for a spot on the Federal Circuit in Washington, where she once was a law clerk. #SheWillRise washingtonpost.com/local/legal-is…
Notably, these are history-making nominations.
