US Senate confirms Ketanji Brown Jackson as US Supreme Court Judge

Washington: The US Senate has confirmed Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson for the Supreme Court in a largely partisan vote on Thursday. The Senate voted 53 to 47 to confirm Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, making her the first Black woman elevated to the Supreme



Court.

Three Republicans joined Democrats and independents in supporting Jackson to be the first African American woman on the highest court. President Joe Biden termed Jackson's confirmation as a historic moment for the US.
