The integrity of the judicial system relies on impartial judges who make decisions based solely on the law and facts of each case, without any conflicts of interest or external influences. Appointing a justice with ties to groups advocating for a vacancy on the court raises serious concerns about their ability to remain unbiased and uphold the principles of an independent judiciary. A fair and trustworthy legal system is essential for protecting the rights of all citizens and maintaining public confidence in the rule of law. We urge the utmost scrutiny in vetting judicial candidates to ensure their impartiality and commitment to equal justice under the law.
