Supreme Court<\/a> Justice Amy Coney Barrett Wednesday appeared at a speaking event at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum in Yorba Linda<\/a> as protesters condemned the recent ruling that allows immigration agents to stop and question people based on their race, accent and jobs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Justice Barrett had a conversation with conservative commentator Hugh Hewitt, discussing her personal life, judicial philosophy as well as her approach to the Constitution as 500 people watched from the audience.<\/p>\n

Her appearance in Orange County coincides with the release of a new book \u201cListing to the Law: Reflections on the Court and Constitution.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Barrett said she wanted to write the book to help Americans understand how the courts work.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want people to have confidence in the institution.\u201d the justice said.<\/p>\n

Barrett did not take questions from the audience during the event. But dozens of protesters outside the library had a lot to say as they expressed their anger at the high court\u2019s decision to lift restrictions on immigration stops. <\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are on American soil you are protected as a person, documented or not,\u201d said Melvin Vernon who participated in the anti-ICE rally outside the Nixon Library.<\/p>\n

Another protester said the Supreme Court\u2019s decision on immigration affects his family personally.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI have two sons: one is brown, and one is white with blue eyes,\u201d Louis Olvera said. \u201c(Federal agents) are going to go to my son who’s brown, and he\u2019s from here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Barrett did not address the protester outside during her appearance, but she highlighted that her job as a justice is to deliver decisions, not based on politics or personal preference.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI want people to understand that we\u2019re not just one of the political branches, that this is very much a legal process driven by legal analysis,\u201d she said.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Barrett, 53, is the youngest member of the Supreme Court and a mother of seven children.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett Wednesday appeared at a speaking event at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":216666,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[1582,276,2961,224,5337,278,96687],"class_list":{"0":"post-216665","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-california","10":"tag-la","11":"tag-los-angeles","12":"tag-losangeles","13":"tag-supreme-court","14":"tag-yorba-linda"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115182462816001083","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216665","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=216665"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216665\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/216666"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=216665"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=216665"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=216665"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
