October 15, 1980 - Reagan Pledges He Would Name a Woman to the Supreme Court

[kpete]

Ronald Reagan, striving to refute charges that he is insensitive to women's rights, said today he would name a woman to "one of the first Supreme Court vacancies in my administration."

"It is time for a woman to sit among our highest jurists," Reagan said in a prepared statement to a news conference here. "I will also seek out women to appoint to other federal courts in an effort to bring about a better balance on the federal bench."

At least he gave us O'Connor. Better than Scalia or Rehnquist.
