Ketanji Brown Jackson is now the first Black woman confirmed to the Supreme Court in US history after a narrow Senate vote. Jackson will be the 116th justice to serve on the nation's highest court. She will wait months to take her seat on the bench, until Associate Justice Stephen Breyer officially retires. President Joe Biden and Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson watched the results of the Senate vote on her nomination in the Roosevelt Room, alongside other White House senior staff. Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, who presided over the Senate vote, and Jackson will deliver remarks on the judge’s confirmation Friday on the South Lawn.
