Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito Jr. told senators Friday that he sees protection in the Constitution for privacy, but he refused anew to divulge his thoughts on the Court's landmark abortion rights decisions. The Senate Judiciary Committee will vote on his nomination on Tuesday, with the full Senate starting final debate the next day. Several Democrats say they don't expect a filibuster, but they are lining up to vote against the conservative judge.

Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito told senators Friday that he sees protection in the Constitution for privacy, but he refused anew to divulge his thoughts on the Supreme Court’s landmark abortion rights decisions.
Just as he did during his five-day confirmation hearing last week, Alito in written responses to questions submitted by six Senate Democrats refused to delve into several abortion-related issues, including the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision establishing abortion rights.
