Sen. Cory Booker said he does not trust Trump-appointed judges to uphold the rights of Americans during an interview with comedian Stephen Colbert.
Sen. Cory Booker told 'Late Show' host Stephen Colbert that he did not trust conservative judges, especially those appointed by former President Trump, to uphold the rights of Americans in an interview Monday. 'I don't trust judges to secure our rights,' the New Jersey Democrat told Colbert during a conversation about what Congress can do to stop conservative judges from influencing issues like abortion and gun rights. 'Congress must act,' he said.
The senator also said conservative judges were making decisions on issues like in vitro fertilization contrary to the interests of a majority of Americans. 'The majority of Americans believe that we should have access to IVF,' Booker said. Booker supports an IVF bill to protect the practice through federal legislation that Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill, is spearheading.
