Letter of endorsement signed by 1,200 Law Professors

Last Wednesday we wrote about a letter in support of Judge Sonia Sotomayor’s nomination to the Supreme Court that had been signed by “almost 1,200” law professors from across the country. Today, during the Sotomayor confirmation hearing, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Leahy introduced the letter into the record with 1,200 signatures. An impressive number that shows clear support of Judge Sotomayor’s confirmation.
