President Biden Names Thirty-Second Round of Judicial Nominees

HOME
BRIEFING ROOM
STATEMENTS AND RELEASES

The President is announcing his intent to nominate two federal judicial nominees—both of whom are extraordinarily qualified, experienced, and devoted to the rule of law and our Constitution.

These choices also continue to fulfill the President’s promise to ensure that the nation’s courts reflect the diversity that is one of our greatest assets as a country—both in terms of personal and professional backgrounds.

If confirmed, this slate would include:

The first Hispanic woman to serve on the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and the only active Hispanic judge on the Fifth Circuit.
The fourth Hispanic woman to serve on the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.

This will be President Biden’s thirty-second round of nominees for federal judicial positions, bringing the number of announced federal judicial nominees to 163.
