Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) is lauding Judge Amy Coney Barrett for making history by taking a strong pro-life position and standing firm in her Catholic faith.

“I have never been more proud of a nominee than I am of you. You’ve been candid to this body about who you are, what you believe. You’ve been reassuring in your disposition and this is history being made folks,” Graham said.

He went on, “This is the first time in American history that we’ve nominated a woman who is unashamedly pro-life and embraces her faith without apology. And she’s going to the Court. A seat at the table is waiting on you, and it will be a great signal to all young women who want to share your view of the world that there is a seat at the table for them.”

Graham noted Barrett’s confirmation will not be celebrated in “most places.”

He also thanked President Donald Trump for allowing Barrett to “showcase” her talents.

During the second day of her confirmation hearings, Barrett made it clear she has no agenda on abortion, as IJR previously reported.

Abortion rights activists are worried she will overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, a decision that legalized abortion across the nation.

When asked about the ruling, Barrett explained, “Judges can’t just wake up one day and say, ‘I have an agenda, I like guns, I hate guns, I like abortion, I hate abortion,’ and walk in like a royal queen and impose, you know, their will on the world.”

She added, “I’m answering a lot of questions about Roe, which I think indicates Roe does not fall in that category. Scholars across the spectrum say that doesn’t mean that Roe should be overruled, but descriptively it does mean it is not a case that everyone has accepted.”

Barrett made it clear she can separate her faith in making decisions.
