I have some great news to share you with today. The Goldwater
Institute’s Clint Bolick will soon join the Arizona Supreme Court as its
newest justice. Arizona Governor Doug Ducey announced earlier today
that he selected Clint for the state’s highest court.
Unlike the U.S Supreme Court, state supreme courts rarely have
constitutional scholars. Clint is well-positioned to advance the
development of state constitutional law and enforce the freedom-oriented
provisions of the Arizona state constitution. In turn, these precedents
can be exported to other states.
As a litigator, Clint has vindicated the fundamental constitutional
rights of all Americans, including winning landmark cases that protected
the right to earn an honest living and expanded educational options for
children nationwide. Americans can count on Clint to be on the side of
all Americans in defending our constitutional freedoms.
And this brings me to some additional news I am excited to share.
Constitutional scholar and litigator Timothy Sandefur will succeed
Clint as Vice President for Litigation, leading the Goldwater
Institute’s Scharf-Norton Center for Constitutional Litigation. Tim
currently serves as a principal attorney at the Pacific Legal
Foundation. He is the lead attorney for that organization’s Economic
Liberty Project and works daily to protect businesses against abusive
government regulations. He has won important victories for free
enterprise in California, Kentucky, Missouri, Oregon, and other states.
His published books include Cornerstone of Liberty: Property Rights in
21st Century America (updated for 2016), The Right to Earn A Living:
Economic Freedom And The Law (2010), and The Conscience of The
Constitution (2013).
To reach Clint in the future, please email clintbolick@yahoo.com. To welcome Tim, please email him at tsandefur@goldwaterinstitute.org.
