Supreme Court justices testify before Congress for the first time in seven years, requesting additional resources to address what they describe as a rise in security threats. NBC News reports that the justices are seeking increased funding as part of congressional action on the Court’s budget. The New York Times adds that the request focuses on the 2027 budget and that most of the additional money would be dedicated to security-related measures. The reporting characterizes the session as part of the justices’ effort to explain why current protections require strengthening, including efforts to ensure safety for the justices as threats increase. While the articles emphasize the security rationale and the budget timing, they do not provide specific dollar amounts or details of particular programs in the excerpts provided. Overall, both outlets describe a bipartisan request for more security funding and highlight that the justices are using a rare appearance before lawmakers to make their case for additional support to protect them amid a changing threat environment.
