Stevens signals dissent posture for Supreme Court confirmation
Supreme Court nominee John Paul Stevens told the Senate Judiciary Committee he would subordinate personal views to the Constitution and dissent when disagreeing with the majority. He argued dissents aid clear expression of views, while acknowledging weight to precedent and changes in society. He stressed First Amendment press freedom and Fourteenth Amendment fair trial rights, and said he would treat press law like any other law if constitutional. He paused on sex discrimination standards and noted possible impact of Equal Rights Amendment. He disclosed net worth of 172,000 dollars with one omission for two savings accounts.
