Prof. Kirtley Discusses Senate Bill on Cameras in Supreme Court

Professor Jane Kirtley was quoted in a story in the Thomson Reuters News & Insight blog regarding the Senate Judiciary Committee's approval of a bill to allow cameras in the U.S. Supreme Court. Kirtley said that although she favors camera access, she does not think Congress has authority to compel it over the high court's opposition. "I always wonder whether an attempt of Congress to force this on the Court is just going to encourage the justices to dig in their heels even more," she said.
