Nomination of Justin Walker to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Kentucky

Oct. 24, 2019

The AFL-CIO opposes the nomination of Justin Walker to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Kentucky. Only ten years after his graduation from law school, Mr. Walker has extremely limited legal experience, minimal trial experience, and a deeply partisan record that raises very serious concerns about his ability to be fair and open-minded. He was confirmed on Oct. 24, 2019.
