Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh attended a holiday party hosted by Matt Schlapp, the chairman of the right-wing group Conservative Political Action Coalition.
The attendees included Stephen Miller, a controversial former adviser to Donald Trump whose group America First Legal Foundation is interested in pending cases before the court, including challenges to affirmative actions and a case that could give states more power to change elections laws.
Kavanaugh’s presence at the event raised questions about a potential conflict of interest.
Other attendees were Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Florida), Trump’s former White House press secretary Sean Spicer and Rep.-elect George Santos (R-New York).
