Choose the Next Supreme Court Justice Wisely, Mr. President

Choose the Next Supreme Court Justice Wisely, Mr. President

The Issue

 

For more than three decades, Associate Justice John Paul Stevens was a tremendous force for justice and fairness on the Supreme Court.

A quick look at the Court's most controversial decisions, from Brown v. Board to Citizen's United v. the FCC, and it's clear that the appointment of a new Supreme Court Justice is among the most monumental decisions any president will make.

To replace John Paul Stevens -- a stalwart champion of constitutional values and the rule of law, and a man who served the court with compassion and integrity for more than 34 years -- will be a decision second to none.

Tell President Obama to appoint a justice who will keep faith with core constitutional values, stand for fairness under the law and defend our most important freedoms and protections -- a justice who will honor the legacy of Associate Justice John Paul Stevens.
