“Dale Ho exemplifies the kinds of judges we need on our courts — eminently qualified, fair-minded, reflective of our communities, and deeply committed to protecting the civil and human rights of all. He dedicated his career to protecting the rights of all people, particularly our freedom to vote, and he possesses the depth and breadth of experiences our federal courts need to move us closer to the promise of delivering equal justice for all.
