As a second Trump administration approaches, we’re running out of time to confirm as many federal judges as possible to provide a check on his presidential power and curb his stated policy priorities.
There are 45 federal judicial vacancies and 15 nominations before the Senate right now—as our civil rights hang in the balance, take action now!
The National Women’s Law Center and the undersigned gender justice organizations urge the Senate to confirm Nicole Berner to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. Berner is a renowned attorney who is deeply committed to equal justice for all and dedicated to protecting the rights of women, girls, workers, people of color, and LGBTQ people. Nicole Berner was nominated on November 15, 2023, and renominated at the beginning of the second session of the 118th Congress.
