Justice Gorsuch Touts Importance Of Independent Judges While Plugging New Children’s BookSupreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch pressed the importance of independent judges who are “not bound down by politics” while discussing a new children’s book that he co-authored about the Declaration of Independence.Speaking on Fox News on Monday, the Conservative justice said he penned his new book, “Heroes Of 1776,” after feeling unsatisfied with the current level of history and civic education in the U.S.“One of the things that the framers of the Declaration of Independence really wanted was independent judges to interpret and apply the law, who were not bound down by politics,” he said. ”They fought a revolution against a king who had taken control of the judiciary himself, and so an originalist tries to be faithful to the original, written word of the Constitution and apply it.”Gorsuch, who considers himself an originalist, went on to say that the “terms” of the Constitution cannot be changed by the Supreme Court’s nine justices. “That’s not our job.”His book is scheduled for release Tuesday.See All UpdatesClose
