Statement issued today by Michigan Civil Rights Commission on the passing of Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg:

“Justice Ginsburg was not just a consummate jurist and litigator. Ruth Bader Ginsburg will always be remembered as a pillar of the movement for civil rights and women’s rights. She is one of a handful of greats this country has produced who through her steadfast determination, strength of character and clarity of vision, changed the trajectory of countless lives, especially the lives of women. We are forever in her debt,” from Stacie Clayton, Chair.
