Remembering Sandra Day O'Connor: A Trailblazing Legacy

Tributes are pouring in for Sandra Day O'Connor, the first woman to serve as a U.S. Supreme Court justice, who passed away at the age of 93. Republicans, Democrats, and tennis legend Billie Jean King are among those honoring O'Connor for her trailblazing role in breaking the glass ceiling for women in law. Her contributions to the court, defending rights and reviving federalism, are being celebrated, and Arizonans are praising her for her commitment to preserving democracy and her Arizona brand of pragmatism. O'Connor's legacy as a force of nature and a founding mother is being remembered, and her work in improving civics education is being recognized.
