U.S. Supreme Court Nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson Has Strong Environmental Record
As the Sierra Club notes,
“Environmental laws are only as strong as the judges who uphold them. Right now, cases before the court include decisions that could affect our ability to fight climate change, and protect the public against deadly pollution in our air and water. For all these reasons and more, it is imperative that President Biden’s incredible nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson, must be confirmed as swiftly as possible.”
If the United States is going to make a major contribution to climate change mitigation and environmental responsibility more generally, it will require that the Supreme Court come down on the right side of a great number of the cases that come before it. The confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson will be a huge step in that direction.
