Clarence Thomas

Clarence Thomas is an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, having been appointed by President George H.W. Bush in 1991. He is known for his conservative judicial philosophy, often advocating for originalism, which interprets the Constitution as it was understood at the time it was written. Thomas is also notable for his relatively low profile and limited questioning during oral arguments. His views often emphasize the importance of individual rights and a limited role of federal government, which has made him a significant figure in shaping modern American law and constitutional interpretation.
