WASHINGTON, DC - SEPTEMBER 30: U.S. Supreme Court Associate Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson stands for a photo in front of the Supreme Court following her investiture ceremony on September 30, 2022 in Washington, DC. The ceremony for Jackson, who took her official Supreme Court oaths at the end of June, was attended by U.S. President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, First Lady Jill Biden and second gentleman Doug Emhoff.
