51:06Now Playing(Apr. 8) Watch live as President Joe Bide, Vice President Kamala Harris and Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson deliver remarks on the Senate’s historic, bipartisan confirmation in Washington, D.C., on Friday, April 8, 2022.
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson will join a Supreme Court that is both more diverse than ever and more conservative than it’s been since the 1930s.
She’s likely to be on the losing end of a bunch of important cases, including examinations of the role of race in college admissions and voting rights that the high court, with its 6-3 conservative majority, will take up next term.
Jackson, 51, is the first Black woman confirmed to the Supreme Court following Thursday’s 53-47 vote by the Senate. She won’t join the court for several months, until Justice Stephen Breyer retires once the court wraps up its work for the summer — including its verdict on whether to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling on abortion rights.
