The lawyers’ letter (pdf), which features a quote from Ginsburg, was submitted to the Senate by Lawyers for Good Government (L4GG), a national network of attorneys committed to upholding human rights and equal justice for all, in partnership with the Alliance for Justice, an association of over 120 organizations.
