Justice Elena Kagan and Justice Amy Coney Barrett will appear before a congressional panel on Monday to examine rising tensions after a heated Supreme Court session. Conservative groups insist that Kagan should not preside over scheduled climate rulings due to perceived bias. The hearing follows weeks of criticism over the Court’s significant rulings and occurs while lawmakers review the judiciary’s budget. Security concerns are a top priority, with justices asking for more protection from Congress as threats mount against the judges.
