U.S. Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett says it would be a good idea for the nation’s highest court to adopt a formal code of conduct
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett said Monday that it would be a good idea for the nation's highest court to adopt a formal code of conduct, but she said the nine justices already agree that they should hold themselves to the highest ethical standards possible.
But security in and around the auditorium was notably tighter than for the other justices, following calls by activist groups to protest against Barrett's appearance. Several protesters stood up early during Barrett's remarks and chanted slogans including: “Not the court. Not the state. People must decide their fate.” Police escorted them out after a couple of minutes, and police said there were no arrests. More than 200 people peacefully protested outside the auditorium.
