From 2019 until her federal appointment, Judge DuBose served as a Rhode Island District Court Judge.?

As required by Rhode Island General Laws § 8-16.1-4(b), the JNC has provided its 2023 report to the General Assembly and Governor McKee.?Pursuant to the aforementioned statute, the JNC is required to collect demographic information concerning race, ethnicity, and gender anonymously and applicants are not required to provide demographic information. Because there is no requirement that applicants provide the requested information and because the data must be collected anonymously, not all applicants provide the requested information through the JNC’s Voluntary Supplement to the Personal Data Questionnaire.?Thus, the information in the report reflects demographic information received from a small sample of the applicants for any given judicial vacancy, and it is biased in favor of those who voluntarily participated. Providing demographic information should be voluntary on the part of applicants.?However, the JNC would be able to provide more accurate demographic information about applicants for judicial vacancies if it were not required to collect the data anonymously.
