Justice Ginsburg Praises Kavanaugh for Appointing All-Female Staff

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, only the second woman in history to be added to the high court, praised newly-confirmed Justice Brett Kavanaugh for appointing an all-female staff of law clerks. Ginbsurg said last Tuesday during a sit-down at Georgetown Law School…“There is a very important first on the Supreme Court this term and it’s thanks to our new justice, Justice Kavanaugh. Justice Kavanaugh made history by bringing on board an all-female law clerk crew. Thanks to his selections, the court has this term, for the first time ever, more women than men serving as law clerks.” Kavanaugh, whose contentious confirmation hearing last summer was marked by allegations of sexual assault – touted his record on sending female law clerks to clerk on the Supreme Court. He also promised to hire an all-female law clerk team.
