Legislators Know Much More About Elections Than

Work For The Things That You Care About.

When I Graduated From Law School In 1959, There Wasn't A Single Woman On Any Federal Bench. It Wouldn't Be A Realistic Ambition For A Woman To Want To Become A Federal Judge.

Frankly I Had Thought That At The Time Roe Was Decided, There Was Concern About Population Growth And Particularly Growth In Populations That We Don't Want To Have Too Many Of.

The Greatest Threat To Public Confidence In Elections In This Case Is The Prospect Of Enforcing A Purposefully Discriminatory Law, One That Likely Imposes An Unconstitutional Poll Tax And Risks Denying The Right To Vote To Hundreds Of Thousands Of Eligible Voters.

Even The Declaration Of Independence Starts Out All Men Are Created Equal, So I See My Advocacy As Part Of An Effort To Make The Equality Principle Everything The Founders Would Have Wanted It To Be If They Weren't Held Back By The Society In Which They Lived And Particularly The Shame Of Slavery.
