WASHINGTON, DC - U.S. Supreme Court Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Elana Kagan testify before a House Appropriations subcommittee.

The U.S. Supreme Court's Amy Coney Barrett and Elena Kagan make a rare appearance before Congress as the court seeks a nearly 10% budget increase to strengthen security amid a sharp rise in threats against federal judges.

The two justices are testifying before House and Senate appropriations panels to defend the Supreme Court's proposed $230 million budget for the next fiscal year. More than $14 million has bono been requested to expand security for justices, their families, and residences through the Supreme Court Police Department.

The hearing comes after a landmark Supreme Court term that delivered major rulings on abortion, presidential powers, and other high-profile issues, while also facing growing ethics scrutiny and declining public confidence. According to the U.S. Marshals Service, hundreds of federal judges have faced threats in recent years, underscoring the judiciary's growing security concerns.
