Amy Coney Barrett Can Change The Court For Decades
Transcript:
Bryan Fischer here with today’s Life and Liberty Minute. Amy Coney Barrett is being grilled by her Democrat adversaries about a seat on the Supreme Court. If confirmed, Ms Barrett will bring with her the originalist mindset of Antonin Scalia. An originalist believes that the Constitution means no more and no less than what the Founders intended it to mean. Justices must apply the law as written, not as they wish it were. Policy, Ms. Barrett believes, is to be established by Congress and not by the Courts. Putting policy decisions in the hands of the Court is how we got Roe v. Wade. Congress should make these decisions rather than the Court because the Constitution says so, and because Congress is accountable to the people, and the Court is not. With Barrett on the bench we’ll get back to the Founders’ Constitution rather than the one mangled by the courts.
