On Thursday, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson became the first Black woman on the Supreme Court after being voted in 53 to 47 from the Senate.
Judge Kentanji Brown Jackson is now the first Black woman to sit on the highest court in the U.S. On Thursday, Jackson received full support from Democrats on the Senate — along with three Republicans, senators Susan Collins of Maine, Mitt Romney of Utah and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska — to appoint her as new Supreme Court judge.

“While I do not expect to agree with every decision she may make on the Court, I believe that she more than meets the standard of excellence and integrity,” Romney tweeted on Monday.
