Judges

Courts and judges can create progress for women and their families—or they can take it away. Gender justice requires a diverse, fair, and independent judiciary.

Judicial Nominations

The judges appointed today will shape our rights tomorrow. That’s why we need judges who understand the impact of the law on women and their families’ everyday lives.

Supreme Court

The Supreme Court has the power—and the responsibility—to advance gender justice, and NWLC fights to make sure everyone understands the rights and harms that are at stake.
