Deep dives
The Origins of Demand Justice
Demand Justice was founded in late 2017 as a response to the confirmation of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. The goal was to galvanize the public and Democratic legislators around the importance of the federal judiciary and the need to counter Trump and McConnell's influence over it. The organization launched publicly in the spring of 2018, aiming to provoke greater concern about the state of the judiciary among the progressive base.
