Amy Coney Barrett’s confirmation hearing is currently ongoing in the Senate and each day brings forth new material revealing the dangers of her becoming a Supreme Court Justice. There are plenty of valid reasons why Americans do not want her to fill Ruth Bader Ginsberg’s seat, not the least of which is her being Donald Trump’s pick. Barrett’s nomination threatens to move us backward as a country and undo so many hard-fought battles.
Julie Gunnigle, a former student at Notre Dame Law School, recently went on Twitter to give her thoughts on the matter:
Make no mistake about it: Judge Amy Coney Barrett is an extremist pick. Her record on reproductive rights, coverage for preexisting conditions, LGBTQ+ rights, and the dignity of work is abysmal.

She continues on confirming our worst fears if Barrett tips the balance of the Supreme Court with her views.
With her nomination to the United States Supreme Court, the overturning of established precedent like Roe v. Wade is all but guaranteed.

Amy Coney Barrett is backing up this character testimony at her own hearing with “mishaps” such as calling sexual orientation a “preference”.
“Sexual preference,” a term used by Justice Barrett, is offensive and outdated. The term implies sexuality is a choice. It is not. News organizations should not repeat Justice Barrett’s words without providing that important context.

Barrett may just be the least liked SCOTUS pick in recent history. Even less than Kavanaugh although she hasn’t even had the chance to start crying while holding up a calendar and shouting about her profound love for beer. To put the icing on this already abominable cake, she doesn’t seem to even believe in the climate crisis the world is facing, and she will be appointed for life.
Given everything we now know, EVEN IF you’re not a scientist, HOW can you say “I have read things about climate change. I would not say I have firm views on it.” ???pic.twitter.com/XsQfj9uGMU
