The nomination of Judge Kavanaugh to be a justice on the Supreme Court comes at a unique and unprecedented moment in our country’s history. Our review of Judge Kavanaugh’s record grapples with the judicial philosophies he holds and the rulings he has issued. It also reflects the highly unusual context surrounding his nomination. His record on and off the court independently shapes our assessment of his fitness to serve on the nation’s highest court and our evaluation of the likely effect he would have on the Court’s jurisprudence concerning fundamental civil rights and protections. Together, this record and the fraught context of Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination cement our position that he is unfit to serve as the next justice of the Supreme Court.
