Richard Rosenthal, an appellate attorney, gave remarks March 24 on the final day of the Senate Judiciary Committee’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Rosenthal called Jackson a “lifelong friend” for nearly 38 years.'

Growing up together in Florida, Rosenthal said Jackson "was seemingly everywhere and everything,” and was "universally loved and admired by everyone."

After three days of testimony from Jackson and questions from senators, the committee will hear from professional and personal witnesses who can speak to Jackson’s work and her character.

Jackson was nominated by President Joe Biden in February to replace retiring Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer. After the hearings conclude, the committee will issue a recommendation in preparation for a full Senate vote. If confirmed, Jackson will be the first Black woman on the high court.
