Judicial Crisis Network

The Judicial Crisis Network (JCN) is a conservative advocacy organization in the United States that promotes judicial confirmation of federal judges who align with its ideological stance. It engages in political activities such as lobbying, advertising, and funding campaigns to influence the appointment and confirmation process of judges, particularly those on the Supreme Court and lower federal courts. JCN aims to shape the judiciary to favor conservative legal principles, often emphasizing issues like religious liberty, gun rights, and free speech. Its efforts have played a significant role during periods of judicial vacancy or controversy over judicial nominations.
