Judge Alito has been quite clear and consistent. Professor Goodwin Liu of Boalt Hall School of Law at the University of California at Berkeley summed up Judge Alitos work in his testimony to the Judiciary Committee: Throughout his career. with few exceptions. Judge Allto has sided with the police. prosecutors. immigration officials. and other government agents while taking a minimalist approach to recognizing official error and abuse. In an editorial on January 12. the New York Times made the same point in somewhat different terms: [Judge Alito] time and again. as a lawyer and a judge .... has taken the side of the big corporations against the little guy. supported employers against employees. and routinely rejected the claims of women. racial minorities and the disabled. In a memorandum that he submitted when applying for a political position in the Justice Department in 1985.
