[ applause ] the honorable antonin scalia. Antonin scalia was one of the greatest Supreme Court justices in american history. Confirmed unanimously in 1986, Justice Scalia authored nearly 900 Supreme Court opinions. He was a champion of the constitution, insisting that the role of federal judges is to uphold the original meaning of the constitution, never to impose their own beliefs on the country. Justice scalias legal philosophy is rooted in americas founding principles, legal heritage and constitutional obligations.
