Democratic Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey is praising the confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court.
“Judge Jackson’s nomination is an important step to bringing us closer to having our institutions better reflect the great diversity of our nation,” Casey said.
Casey joined all other Democrats and three Republicans in voting to confirm Brown Jackson.
She is the first ever black woman to hold a seat on the Supreme Court.
“At its core, our court system, more so than any other institution, is dedicated to the idea that everyone deserves a fair shot at justice and no one is above the law. From her time as a public defender to her tenure on the federal bench, Judge Jackson has long fought to make this ideal a reality,” Casey said in a statement.
It’s expected that Brown Jackson will join the bench this summer.
