Judge Amy Coney Barrett, President Donald Trump's nominee to the Supreme Court, will begin meeting with senators on Tuesday, including Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, according to a senior administration official.
In addition to McConnell , Barrett will also meet with several Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee, including Chair Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas, Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Mike Lee of Utah and Mike Crapo of Idaho. She will also meet with Senate Majority Whip John Thune of South Dakota and Sens. Cory Gardner of Colorado and Rick Scott of Florida.
Barrett, who sits on the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, is expected to receive wide support from Senate Republicans. Several Senate Democrats, meanwhile, including Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York, have already said they will not meet with Barrett, arguing that given the proximity to the election, whoever is elected president should fill the vacancy.
The Senate Judiciary Committee will begin Barrett’s confirmation hearings on Oct. 12. The hearings are expected to last four days. Over the weekend, Graham suggested that Barrett would be voted out of committee on Oct. 22.Filed Under:
And not once has Biden said who he would nominate. The left has left everyone in the dark on this election and people complain about the right?
If she would have real respect for herself, her profession, the Supreme Court or the country, she wouldn't even accept the nomination this close to Nov. 3rd. The election is already happening. People are already voting. NoConfirmationBeforeInauguration
Deflection.
and media attack her because she is christian:)
Not the new face of feminism though. Far from it. forcedbirther homophobic
As with free-thinking minorities who don't stay on the leftist thought plantation, leftists don't like it when a woman really does think for herself & doesn't screech the anti-God, anti-family 'dogma' leftists believe.
We congratulate Judge Amy Coney Barrett for her upcoming position in advance and wishing her a good luck for serving the country.
She is not qualified. She has only been a judge for 3 years, one of the first selected by Trump. Also, being from Indiana smells.
Do SenateGOP still need to meet this woman? She possibly has a private meeting with all the members of the Judicial community. She was vetted many times. They know she is going to overturn Roe vs Wade!
One can only hope that they look at her record as judge and as an attorney, and realize that she is totally unqualified to be a Supreme Court justice. Can they actually put politics aside and do what is right for the country?
BlockBarrett
well that is exciting meeting with mitch who doesnt care at all what her qualification are lmao what a joke
She’s a hypocrite. Shame on her.
Just pass it!! Just like Obama care was rushed thru the night
Has this woman no self-respect? Being appointed by the biggest idiot in history. I'd be insulted. No respect for her whatsoever.

SHAM meetings. They have already made up their minds.
She should refuse all offers until her youngest turns 16. That goes for all mothers. Until then, her motherly obligations are not finished and her children still have a right to her undivided attention. This is not the right message for our girls
Just what is the punishment for being impeached? This impeached trump gets to try to fill the Supreme Court seat?! 🤬
Go, Amy! Congrats!!
Trump chose her because he knows she will not be objective and completely favor whatever he wants. 🤷🏾♂️
A disgrace 😡🇺🇸
Another illegitimate christian fascist on the court. They're asking for it. PackTheCourt
