Retired Judges Tour to Defend Judicial Independence Amid Rising Threats

The 'Justice in Motion' tour marks the nation's 250th anniversary and aims to raise awareness about the dangers facing judicial independence.
Judges report a significant increase in threats against federal judges, with the U.S. Marshals Service noting 564 threats in the last fiscal year, up from 509 the previous year.
The initiative draws inspiration from a similar campaign in Poland, focusing on educating the public about the importance of judicial independence.
