Despite intense opposition from the public (some 76% of Americans oppose the president’s plan to nominate a black woman for the seat), President Biden has decided to move ahead with his plan to nominate a black woman to serve on the Supreme court, with his nominee expected to be announced by the end of the week, according to Fox News.
As Fox and others (including us) have previously noted, the finalists for the seat are Ketanji Brown Jackson, Leondra Kruger and Michelle Childs. We first profiled all three women in our original post about Justice Stephen Breyer’s retirement.
