Recap of Day Two: Amy Coney Barrett Confirmation Hearings

Summary from the AllSides News Team

Amy Coney Barrett's Supreme Court confirmation hearings continued Tuesday on the floor of the U.S. Senate. Barrett was questioned about her stances on abortion, healthcare, LGBT rights and other social issues that are often politicized. Most coverage from left-rated sources and some center-rated sources framed Barrett's answers as evasive or vague; many focused on her perceived stances on social issues and how her nomination may purportedly endanger rights for women and the LGBTQ+ community. Coverage from right-rated outlets was generally less speculative about how Barrett's potential future decisions could impact policy changes; some painted Senate Democrats' questions as bizarre.
