Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett told senators in Washington on Tuesday that she would “stick to the rule of law and decide cases as they come” when pressed on how she views Roe v. Wade, Planned Parenthood v. Casey, and District of Columbia v. Heller.

Senate Judiciary Ranking Member Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) asked Barrett whether she agrees with her mentor, late Justice Antonin Scalia, that Casey, which upheld Roe’s ruling that abortion access is a constitutional right, was wrongly decided.
