Amy Coney Barrett calls oil companies' arguments 'slippery' in climate suit

Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Bar­rett described oil companies' arguments in a climate-related lawsuit as 'slippery' during proceedings. The remark came as the Court weighed claims brought against major fossil fuel producers over their role in climate change. Her pointed language drew attention from observers on both sides of the climate litigation debate.

Why now: A conservative justice's unusually sharp language toward oil companies is striking amid ongoing Supreme Court climate litigation.
