Synopsis

Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a trail-blazing attorney and an iconic Supreme Court Justice. She has left America a lasting legacy through the example of her life and voluminous paper trail — 483 majority, concurring, or dissenting opinions for the Supreme Court. This is a curated collection of her MUST-READ opinions -- including landmark decisions and her most biting dissents. In RBG's own words, learn about the worldview she embraced and the vision she had for society. Each opinion is introduced with a brief explanation of the case and issues presented. 

For anyone concerned about the rights of women, minorities, employees, the disabled, the accused — for anyone concerned about voting rights, the environment, health care — for anyone concerned about the role of Article III judges within our system of government — Justice Ginsburg’s writings are essential reading. Agree or disagree, they should be studied, understood, and respected.

  • United States v. Virginia
  • Olmstead v. L. C.
