GOP senators demand Supreme Court nominee Jackson answer policy questions



By Josh Israel -March 22, 2022 11:40 AM

But Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee objected to any policy questions for Amy Coney Barrett in 2020.

Senate Republicans are demanding that President Joe Biden's nominee to the U.S. Supreme Court, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, weigh in on a policy question: How many justices there should be on the Court?

But just two years ago, during confirmation hearings for former President Donald Trump's final Supreme Court nominee, Judge Amy Coney Barrett, Republicans strongly objected to the idea that a judicial nominee should respond to questions on legislative matters

At Tuesday's Senate Judiciary Committee confirmation hearing for Jackson, Biden's nominee to replace retiring Associate Justice Stephen Breyer, the top Republican on the panel pressed her on the question of "court packing."
