Before senators decide whether or not to approve a federal court nominee, they will listen to the views of the people in their states. BenchMark.com is a grassroots and national effort to reach out to policy makers to ensure that only those nominees who support constitutional rights to reproductive freedom and civil rights be confirmed to these positions.
The Barbara Lee Family Foundation contributed to the NCJW's BenchMark campaign.
