Action Alert: Ask Senators to Oppose This Nominee
The last three nominees to California seats on the Ninth Circuit have all been from the same “large donor” law firm; Michelle Friedland is the third such nominee, which raises serious questions as to lack of diversity and influence.

This court has a very light work load and can perform quite well without additional judges seated.
