YouTube Description
as posted by the channelCrystal Good, a sexual assault survivor from Charleston, West Virginia, testified Oct. 15 in the final day of the Senate Judiciary Committee’s Supreme Court confirmation hearing for Judge Amy Coney Barrett. She spoke about the importance of keeping abortion safe and legal in the U.S., without interference from parental consent laws. “President Trump has been clear that he would only appoint justices who would overturn Roe v. Wade. Unfortunately, through learning about Judge Barrett’s record, I understand why the president believes she passes that test,” Good said. The hearing came about three weeks before Election Day. The judge did not appear before the committee on the final day of the hearing. Instead, both Republicans and Democrats called outside witnesses to speak to her record and approach to the law.
