Today, Supreme Court Justices Elena Kagan and Amy Coney Barrett are testifying before the House and Senate Appropriations Subcommittees on Financial Services and General Government.

The associate justices will address the court’s request for funding to increase security, beyond the usual mandatory appropriations. The Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts has requested additional resources for the protection of the justices’ homes and families by the Supreme Court Police.

The two-day Defense and Innovation Summit, inaugurated in 2025 by Senator Dave McCormick of Pennsylvania, begins today at the U.S. Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.

As the Lord Leads, Pray with Us…

• For Justices Kagan and Barrett as they testify before members of the congressional committees.
• For Senators and Representatives to be discerning in their decisions on federal appropriations.
• For President Trump and his advisors as they evaluate the war in Iran and regime military and nuclear sites.
