MARQUETTE LAW REVIEW Volume 91 Winter 2007 Number 2 EXERCISING JUDICIAL POWER: A RESPONSE TO THE WISCONSIN SUPREME COURT'S CRITICS THE HONORABLE LYNN ADELMAN* SHELLEY FITE** I. INTRODUCTION In recent years, legal conservatives in Wisconsin have strongly criticized the performance of the Wisconsin Supreme Court. A former member of the court, Diane Sykes, now a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, warned that the court had undergone a "dramatic shift," "depart[ed] from ... familiar and long- accepted" constraints on its power, and failed to exercise its power judiciously.' She called on Wisconsin lawyers to "sit up and take notice.",2 Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Michael B. Brennan echoed Judge Sykes's criticisms, stating that the court's actions raised concerns "about the proper exercise of judicial authority under the state's constitution and laws." 3 And Milwaukee lawyer Rick Esenberg published a paper under the aegis of the Federalist Society, quoting former congressman Dick Armey for the proposition that the court had * Lynn Adelman is a United States District Judge in the Eastern District of Wisconsin and a former Wisconsin legislator. -

The Roberts Court's Assault on Democracy
\\jciprod01\productn\H\HLP\14-1\HLP102.txt unknown Seq: 1 30-JAN-20 10:23 The Roberts Court’s Assault on Democracy Lynn Adelman* This article argues that economic and political developments in the last fifty years have in many respects undermined America’s democratic institutions and that, instead of working to strengthen democracy, the Supreme Court over which Chief Justice Roberts presides, is substantially contributing to its erosion. The Court has done this in two ways, first by carrying on a sustained assault on the right of poor people and minorities to vote. The Court has virtually eviscerated the landmark Voting Rights Act, it has upheld strict voter identification laws that serve no purpose other than to make voting more difficult, and it has authorized states to purge thousands of people from the voting rolls. In addition, the Court has abdicated its responsibility to end the anti-democratic process of partisan gerry- mandering. The second way in which the Court is weakening democracy is by reinforcing the enormous imbalance in wealth and political power that has developed in recent decades and that has contributed to undermining democracy. The Court has done this by consist- ently strengthening the economic and political power of corporations and wealthy individ- uals, as, for example, through its campaign finance decisions, and by reducing that of ordinary Americans as, for example, through its decisions involving labor unions, forced arbitration and the expansion of Medicaid.
