August 6, 2009 will forever be a historical and monumental day; Judge Sonia Sotomayor
is confirmed, as a result of a 68 to 31 vote, to the United States Supreme Court. Judge
Sotomayor will
be the first Hispanic and third woman in history to ever serve on the Supreme Court.
Victor Valley NAACP congratulates Judge Sotomayor on her a well-deserved
triumph. We believe she will serve the Supreme Court and American people with the drive and dignity she has continued to display
throughout this confirmation process.
