Justice Sotomayor Opens Up About Her Colleagues

Justice Sotomayor is on a speaking tour. In a series of public remarks, she has offered some striking comments about her colleagues.

On Wednesday, she spoke in Lawrence, Kansas about Justice Kavanaugh's concurrence in Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo.

"I had a colleague in that case who wrote, you know, these are only temporary stops," Sotomayor said, referencing a concurrence written by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, during an event Tuesday hosted by the University of Kansas School of Law. "This is from a man whose parents were professionals. And probably doesn't really know any person who works by the hour." . . .

"Those hours that they took you away, nobody's paying that person," she said. "And that makes a difference between a meal for him and his kids that night and maybe just cold supper." . . .
