Governor Hobbs has made two outstanding appointments to the Arizona Court of Appeals: Sheena Chiang and Alex Samuels.
Courts work best when judges understand the full range of those who come before them, and these appointments reflect that. #CourtsMatter azgovernor.gov/office-arizon…
“It has been a slow process of losing judicial support in those spaces. It will be a slow process to regain it.” –Tish Gotell Faulks, AFJ Action State Courts Director apnews.com/article/montana-s…

Today’s shadow docket Supreme Court decision allowing DHS and Social Security to build a mega database is a bad ruling. But even the Court's MAGA supermajority was clear that it does not give Donald Trump the ability to conduct sweeping voter purges ahead of the 2026 election. Federal law prohibits systematic voter-roll purges within 90 days of an election.
Don’t let Trump’s kitchen-sink voter suppression campaign intimidate you. Check your registration, vote early if you can and make sure your vote is counted. Vigilance will get us all through.
Unbelievable. Another deeply disappointing, unlawful win for the Trump administration from SCOTUS’s conservative majority.
Ahead of the midterms, the Court just greenlit sweeping voter citizenship checks that could disenfranchise eligible voters. nbcnews.com/politics/supreme…
The redistricting fight in Missouri is far from over.
The 8th Circuit is again backing Missouri’s GOP-drawn congressional map, designed to help Republicans gain a House seat, even after SCOTUS twice blocked its use. slate.com/news-and-politics/…

For nearly a decade, Kansas voters and courts have rejected attacks on abortion rights. The latest vote — and a court ruling just one day earlier — sent the same clear message: Kansans won’t back down. #StateCourtsMatter #AbortionRightsAreHumanRights statecourtreport.org/our-wor…
Victory for North Carolina courts! Thank you, Governor Stein, for vetoing the dangerous HB 377.
We cannot allow an overtly partisan and political Chief Justice to have unchecked power to suspend judges and solidify control over the system. ⚖️ #NCPol wral.com/news/nccapitol/stei…
SCOTUS could hand Trump a major win by blocking lawsuits against his ballroom altogether — a ruling that could threaten laws protecting environmental resources, sacred lands, and historic sites nationwide. vox.com/politics/499692/supr…
The Supreme Court is set to hear oral arguments this fall in a landmark case to determine whether local and state governments can sue fossil fuel companies for climate-related disaster costs. time.com/article/2026/08/11/…
Todd Blanche's confirmation has been advanced because of a performative deal on the slush fund.
His record already answers the question the full Senate now must decide: Does the attorney general answer to the president or the people? #BlockBlanche nbcnews.com/politics/justice…
"The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has unanimously held that the state constitution generally requires a warrant to search privately marked land." #StateCourtsMatter statecourtreport.org/our-wor…
Republicans are once again trying to make it harder to vote by reviving part of an Iowa law that would make it easier to reject absentee ballots. This voter suppression tactic could disenfranchise eligible voters.
This is exactly why #StateCourtsMatter. democracydocket.com/news-ale…
"He isn’t asking the U.S. Supreme Court for permission. He’s simply using the same states’ rights power the court has spent years telling everyone that states have."
Another great example of why #StateCourtsMatter! civilbeat.org/2026/07/a-stun…
"At the federal level, Miranda is getting weaker. But last week’s ruling in Michigan is a reminder that state courts can still protect it." – Madiba K. Dennie (@AudreLawdAMercy) ballsandstrikes.org/law-poli…
SCOTUS dealt a blow to trans rights at the end of the term, and state courts are our next line of defense against this lawless Court.
A survey found that almost 55% of related state cases from 2022-2024 positively impacted trans lives. #StateCourtsMatter statecourtreport.org/our-wor…
"A consistent theme has emerged from the Roberts Court’s jurisprudence: a determination to ignore, rationalize, or misrepresent the explicit animus of government officials — and the president in particular — toward the groups that have been targeted." theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0…
