Video letter: Young Californians and the Supreme Court

To the editor: As a first-generation, low-income Latino pupil at Georgetown College, I agree with Jean Guerrero’s July 7 column on the impression of the U.S. Supreme Court docket’s selections on the futures of younger individuals, particularly these from various backgrounds.

The current choice on affirmative motion will make stepping into school much more troublesome for younger individuals, particularly these from my border city of Imperial, Calif.

I stay, nevertheless, undeterred. Subsequent yr, Californians will elect a brand new senator to exchange the outgoing Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein. One of many many roles of a United States senator is to verify or reject a president’s nominees to the very best courtroom within the land.

My technology shall be intently watching the candidates to see how they plan to verify this reckless courtroom. Our futures rely upon it.

Axel Abrica, Imperial, Calif.
