Incoming Justice Susan Crawford says Wisconsin Supreme Court's rulings aren't politically driven

Published | Video Starts at 01:33

I have accountability to the people to who elected me for, and this job is to interpret the law fairly to equally protect the rights of all Wisconsinites. What I hope to show people is that I'm making my decisions based on what I believe the law requires and not making decisions again through some kind of political litmus test. Crawford's addition to the court maintains a liberal majority through at least 2028. In her first year, the court could take up challenges to Wisconsin's congressional maps, cases on unions and labor rights, and fights over voting rights. (01:33–01:42)
