In this episode of Go Vote, Omaha!, Rebecca Langle, host and Vice President of the League of Women Voters of Greater Omaha, talks with Robert McEwen, J.D., Legal Director at Nebraska Appleseed, about the Courts Matter Coalition of Nebraska.

The Courts Matter Coalition of Nebraska works to educate the public about the importance of federal judges, provide information about the judicial nominations process and mobilize communities to speak out and take action on federal judicial nominees. The Coalition monitors and takes action on federal judicial nominations because of the immense power held by the individuals who hold lifetime seats on the federal bench.
