Biden to Nominate Two Latina Judges to Appeals Courts

“President Joe Biden is poised to nominate two Hispanic women to be judges on powerful federal appeals courts,” NBC News reports.

“He will pick Irma Carrillo Ramirez to serve on the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. She currently serves as a magistrate judge in Texas and is expected to receive bipartisan support in the Senate, a source involved with the nomination said. If confirmed, she’d be the first Latina to serve on the famously conservative appeals court.”

“The president also intends to pick Ana Isabel de Alba to serve on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. She is currently a federal district court judge in California.”
