Endorsements: Executive, Judicial & Mandatory Bar

The WBA considers endorsements for judgeships, executive appointments, and mandatory bar positions. Our principal goal in endorsing candidates is to ensure the appointment of qualified judges to both local and federal courts in the District of Columbia, and to increase the number of qualified people in executive and bar positions who share the mission of the WBA.
