Ketanji Brown Jackson

I wrote up an article about Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, President Biden’s nominee for the Supreme Court, for Discourse. While she doesn’t have much of a paper trail—and, of course, it’s unlikely that Biden would have chosen her if he wasn’t sure she adhered to traditionally Democratic positions on major issues such as abortion and gun rights—I found some of her district court opinions on administrative law interesting, particularly her defense of nationwide injunctions. On these and some other issues, there may be reason for believers in freedom to be optimistic about her appointment. (Of course, there’s never any way to know for sure.)
