Justice Sotomayor Advocates Civility in Supreme Court

Justice Sonia Sotomayor Urges Civility and Respect in Divided Supreme Court

Washington, D.C. – March 31, 2025 – U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, the first Latina to serve on the nation’s highest court, delivered a powerful speech this weekend emphasizing the importance of civility and mutual respect among justices, even amid deep ideological divisions.

Speaking at a legal symposium at Harvard University, Sotomayor acknowledged the court’s recent contentious rulings but stressed that disagreements should not erode professionalism. 'We can differ in our interpretations of the law without diminishing our respect for one another,' she said. 'The strength of this institution lies not in unanimity, but in our ability to engage thoughtfully, even when we dissent.'

Her remarks come as the Supreme Court faces heightened scrutiny over ethics controversies and sharp divisions in high-profile cases involving abortion rights, gun control, and presidential immunity. Sotomayor, a liberal-leaning justice appointed by President Barack Obama in 2009, has frequently found herself in the minority on a conservative-dominated bench. Yet she has remained vocal in her dissents, particularly on issues affecting marginalized communities.

Legal analysts noted that Sotomayor’s call for collegiality may also reflect growing tensions behind the scenes. Recent reports have suggested heated private debates among justices, with Chief Justice John Roberts struggling to maintain consensus.

Beyond the court’s internal dynamics, Sotomayor’s legacy continues to inspire. Born to Puerto Rican parents in the Bronx and raised in public housing, her journey from a diabetes diagnosis at age eight to Princeton, Yale Law School, and eventually the Supreme Court has made her a symbol of perseverance.

When asked about retirement rumors—given the court’s conservative shift—Sotomayor brushed off speculation. 'My work isn’t done,' she said. 'Every voice matters, and I intend to keep using mine.'

As the Supreme Court prepares for another term of polarizing cases, observers will be watching not just the rulings, but whether Sotomayor’s plea for unity can resonate in an increasingly fractured institution.
