Urban League Calls for Speedy Confirmation of Sotomayor
May 28th, 2009The head of the National Urban League Wednesday praised President Obama’s choice of Sonia Sotomayor to replace retiring U.S. Supreme Court Justice David Souter. The civil rights and social-justice organization said that the seriousness of the post meant that Obama had a responsibility to nominate a candidate with a history of protecting civil rights, particularly those of people of color. “Judge Sotomayor appears to be an eminently qualified judge with the intellectual heft, strong record and common touch that is needed in a Supreme Court justice,” Urban League President Marc Morial said in a statement. “We believe the President has made an outstanding choice. …[W]e have a unique responsibility to our constituents to carefully evaluate and influence important national issues, including nominations to the United States federal courts, which play a critical role in protecting the civil rights of African Americans.” He said that Sotomayor had demonstrated a “commitment to upholding civil rights, equality of opportunity and social justice,” and he urged the U.S. Senate to waste no time in confirming her. “We are pleased that the President took such great thought and care in this tremendously important appointment and sought the input of the National Urban League and many other diverse groups,” he added. “The result is the selection of a highly qualified nominee whom we believe will make an outstanding Supreme Court Justice.”
Yes, I to agree that this was a GREAT choice. I am so happy to see our President living up to the responsibility of ensuring social justice for all, by appointing an individual who has a proven record of fairness. Congratulations on your appointment Sotomayor!

Congratulations Judge Sonia Sotomayor. The president has made a wise choice that reflect the diversity of the country. This is history making in the process, change has come to the USA. I believe Judge Sotomayor will be confirmed and become the first Latina on the Supreme court. We all should be extremely happy we now have a president that reflect the sentiments of the people and not just a select few. I love President Obama and First Lady Michele Obama. Make no mistake about it, we got your back (protecting your back). Keep up the excellent job you are doing. Rush Limbaugh and the rest of you racist haters, your time is over. Go take a hike!
