Donald Trump is attacking our judiciary. He is flouting court orders, threatening judges who rule against him, and attempting to fill the judiciary with right-wing loyalists who will grant him more power! During his first term, Donald Trump nominated extremist judges with anti-civil rights records, as well as three Supreme Court Justices who oversaw the fall of Roe and the end of affirmative action in higher education. Now, in his second term, he is again putting forward a slate of judicial nominees who have built their careers on fighting against abortion rights, LGBTQIA+ rights, education equity, the right to vote, and workers’ protections.   

The Importance of Fair Judges 

Every day, federal judges hear cases that determine the rights of women and girls. Now more than ever, it’s crucial that our courts are presided over by fair, impartial and qualified judges who, regardless of outside political pressure, review each case in a manner consistent with the Constitution and the rule of law.   

The National Women’s Law Center is fighting back by launching pressure campaigns targeting the Senate Judiciary Committee and spreading public education about Trump’s dangerous nominees. Learn more about the worst of his nominees by reading our opposition letters below:
