Members resumed questioning Judge Alito on his nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court with a second round allowing 20 minutes for each member. Among the topics addressed in questioning were the role of the judiciary, powers of the executive branch in times of peace and war, abortion rights and privacy, his experience and activity in prior federal court cases and decisions. Several questions also focused on his prior involvement with an organization named Concerned Alumni for Princeton, potential past conflicts of interest in cases, and his opinions of past court cases.

A brief exchange between Chairman Specter and Senator Kennedy over procedural issues occurred prior to a break in the hearings for lunch. At issue were records of Concerned Alumni for Princeton which Senator Kennedy requested be subpoenaed and his call for an executive session to demand the production of the records. During the exchange Senator admonished Senator Kennedy not to try to dictate the committeeƂ?s actions. close
