Justice Samuel Alito says the leak of the draft Supreme Court abortion opinion put the lives of the justices who voted to unwind the constitutional right to an abortion at risk.
to provide additional support to the marshal of the Supreme Court to ensure the safety of the justices amid the public backlash.
Alito said he and his fellow justices, as well as the staff at the Supreme Court, want to"get back to normal to the greatest degree possible" in the wake of Roe's reversal and the COVID-19 pandemic, which closed the building's doors to the public. The high court convened for its new term last month and has welcomed members of the public back for oral arguments.
"We sometimes disagree pretty passionately about the law, and we have not in recent years been all that restrained about the terms in which we express our disagreement. I'm as guilty as others probably on this score," he said."But none of that is personal, and that is something that I think I wish the public understood."
"Everybody in this country is free to disagree with our decisions. There's no question about that. Everybody is free to criticize our reasoning, and in strong terms. And that certainly is done in the media and in writings of law professors and on social media," he said."But to say that the court is exhibiting a lack of integrity is something quite different. That goes to character.
