Since President Biden's term began, the Senate has confirmed an incredible 97 judges, more than were confirmed during the first two years of either of the previous administrations.
Notably, Biden has added more Black women to the circuit courts in the past two years than all other presidents combined, to say nothing of adding the first Black woman, Ketanji Brown Jackson, to the Supreme Court.
In a new report [[link removed]] highlighting the first two years of President Biden’s judicial nominees, Alliance for Justice commemorates incredible progress in adding demographically and professionally diverse judges to the federal bench.
On the other hand, the report also makes it abundantly clear that more work must be done in terms of representation of legal disciplines and demographic groups, such as Indigenous and Latinx nominees.

In 2022, Alliance for Justice continued [[link removed]] the essential work of raising public awareness about the importance of the judiciary, advocating for ethical and impartial courts, and ensuring highly qualified professionally and demographically diverse federal judicial nominees are confirmed.
To achieve this, we nurtured a vibrant advocacy community that works to uphold and advance the rights of all at the local, state and federal levels, while fighting for a future where our judicial system works for everyone, not just those with wealth, power, or privilege.
In a year when an extreme Supreme Court systematically dismantled decades of progress by undoing many of our most cherished rights, AFJ has nevertheless proceeded— and succeeded—in rebalancing our federal courts with fair-minded jurists who are committed to equal justice for all.
