Trump v. Anderson (23-719) (Per Curiam)

An Advocate for Equality


Ruth Bader Ginsburg, born March 15, 1933, had a distinguished career advancing equal rights. While teaching at Rutgers and Columbia Law Schools, she co-founded the Women’s Rights Project of the American Civil Liberties Union. Arguing before the Supreme Court six times, Ginsburg became a trailblazing lawyer in the field of gender equality. Once on the Supreme Court, Justice Ginsburg authored the majority opinion in United States  v. Virginia (1996), which held that the male-only admissions policy at the state-funded Virginia Military Institute violated the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution.
