(Christian Headlines) Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett on Tuesday acknowledged the caricatures of her and the attacks on her faith and family but said it’s worth enduring because she is committed to the rule of law and wants to serve her country.
It was the second day of Senate Judiciary Committee hearings on the nomination of Barrett, who would replace the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Barrett has been criticized by the Left for her deep Catholic faith and her membership in a Christian community, People of Praise.
On Sunday, protesters who oppose her nomination walked outside the U.S. Supreme Court dressed in red robes – a reference to the novel and television series, The Handmaid’s Tale, a story set in a patriarchal society.
