The nation's largest LGBTQ group is applauding reports that President Joe Biden will nominate D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the post of Associate Justice on the U.S. Supreme Court. Jackson, 51, would be only the third Black person to serve on the court in its 233-year history. A former public defender, she would also be the first justice since Thurgood Marshall with significant experience as a defense attorney. She was a law clerk for Breyer, the man she would replace, from 1999 to 2000, and helped shape federal sentencing policy on the U.S.
