Biden's probable pick for the open Supreme Court seat.
Childs’s experience is worth scrutinizing closely. As a lawyer, Childs served as an associate and then partner at Nexsen Pruet Jacobs & Pollard, from 1992 to 2000. At Nexsen Pruet, Childs worked primarily in labor and employment law, principally working on behalf of employers against allegations of racial discrimination, civil rights violations, and unionization drives.
Bloomberg Law has 25 cases registered in which Childs participated during her time at the firm; 23 of those involve alleged employment discrimination or other employment-related civil rights violations. Race and gender were common factors in such suits; seven such cases entailed race-based job discrimination, and another three involved sex-based job discrimination. In all but two registered instances, Childs was not representing the plaintiff but the defendant, meaning that she overwhelmingly represented employers accused of violating civil rights and gender discrimination laws in the workplace.
Not considered the "front runner" at the moment, but all the elements are there. Clyburn is pushing for her. Apparently, Lindsey Graham is on board so it's "bi-partisan." Add to that the concept of a figure who checks all the indentitarian boxes while also upholding a conservative ideology and you've pretty much got the flavor of the moment in Democratic Party politics right now. Hard to imagine this isn't the direction they go in.
