Advocates for Youth is deeply saddened by the death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a lifelong champion of women’s rights, abortion access, and LGBTQ people’s rights. For decades, young people and their allies have looked to Justice Ginsburg for wisdom and clarity in chaotic, unjust,  and dangerous times. Justice Ginsburg leaves behind a legacy of striving for justice and working to protect the rights of the marginalized.  

“Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a true hero and a tireless defender of the people,” said Debra Hauser, President, Advocates for Youth. “This is an indescribable loss to the Supreme Court and to our country.”
