House Passes Bill ​​To Extend Security Protections To Families Of Supreme Court Justices

The House voted 396-27 on Tuesday to pass a bill extending security protections to Supreme Court justices’ immediate family members. The bill — the Supreme Court Police Parity Act of 2022 — will now be sent to President Joe Biden to be signed into law. It was introduced by Republican Sen. John Cornyn of Texas and passed the Senate in May. The bill has been in the spotlight following the bombshell leak of a draft majority opinion that would strike down Roe v. Wade, the 1973 Supreme Court ruling that legalized abortion nationwide.
