YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett faced a second day of questions Wednesday from the Senate Judiciary Committee as Democrats kept up their focus on health care three weeks before the Nov. 3 presidential election.

Barrett again avoided taking positions on a variety of subjects and rulings, saying it would be inappropriate to comment on cases that may come before her as a justice.

"There were lots of unanswered questions, frankly. Unfortunate." Vice presidential nominee Kamala Harris said as she was leaving the confirmation the hearing at the end of the day.

Republicans appear on track to push ahead with her confirmation before the election.

Democrats again pressed Barrett over her views on the Affordable Care Act, noting that President Donald Trump has made clear he wishes to undo the Obama-era health law.

Democrats say Trump and Senate Republicans are rushing to confirm Barrett so she can be seated in time to hear a case next month challenging that law.
