Center for Reproductive Rights Confirmation Commentary|Judge Roberts' Claim to Have "No Agenda" Echoes Scalia Hearings Episode

In her Podcast reacting to the first day of the confirmation hearings for Judge Roberts, Nancy Northup unpacks the significance of Roberts' claim that he has "no agenda."According to Nancy Northup, "Those words sound reassuring. But, that very phrase, 'no agenda,' had an echo from the past. Justice Scalia also testified that he had 'no agenda.' In fact, it was specifically in response to questions about his views onRoe v. Wadethat Justice Scalia assured us that he had 'no agenda.'"The public and the Senate shouldn't be left trying to speculate on the import of these echoes from hearings past to understand what Judge Roberts' views are on the Constitution's protection of our basic rights and liberties. Judge Roberts just needs to tell us."You can listen to the clip here.
