Connecticut Supreme Court Pick Withdraws Over Barrett Letter on Abortion.

TL;DR Summary
Federal prosecutor Sandra Slack Glover withdrew her nomination for a seat on the Connecticut Supreme Court after facing opposition from legislators due to her support for Amy Coney Barrett in a 2017 letter. Barrett is now a U.S. Supreme Court justice who recently voted to end the federal right to abortion. Glover, who called herself a staunch defender of abortion rights, said she was "naive" and "wrong" to have signed the letter. Despite her statements, key members of the Judiciary Committee predicted that her nomination would not be approved.
