US Supreme Court Nominee Sotomayor has come under fire from Republicans over the past week over her role in the Ricci vs De Stefano discrimination case.
Republicans who oppose the Supreme Court nominee say the Ricci case generates doubts about Sotomayor´s understanding of equal opportunity and civil rights. Sotomayor supporters say Republicans are blowing things out of proportion and some civil rights groups like People for the American Way support her decision in the Ricci case.
Pacifica Radio's Mitch Jesserich spoke to Marge Baker, the policy director at People for the American Way.
