Carolyn Kuhl Nomination (Archive)

Nomination Withdrawn December 2004
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

Judge Carolyn Kuhl's views on important civil rights issues, particularly with regard to equal opportunity and the rights of workers and consumers, are outside the mainstream. Her work as a Justice Department official, in private practice, and as a California judge reflects a lack of commitment to core constitutional values and to upholding equal rights for all Americans. Kuhl declined renomination in the 109th Congress.
