Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett received six-figure book advances last year for upcoming book projects, financial disclosure forms made public Thursday revealed.
The disclosure filings of Barrett -- the court's newest member -- shows she received a $425,000 advance from the literary agent Javelin Group, which has represented some of Washington's most prominent figures, like former FBI Director James Comey and former House Speaker John Boehner, in book negotiations.
Gorsuch -- who authored a broad-audience book called "A Republic, If You Can Keep It' in 2019 -- received $250,000 from the publishing company HarperCollins last year, according to his form. The income is listed as "book royalties," but Politico reported Thursday that the amount was an advance for a new book judicial and regulatory policy.

Janet Mills and her allies are counting on a gender gap to narrow Platner’s wide lead ahead of the June 9 primary to decide who will face incumbent Republican Sen. Susan Collins. They are betting that the unfiltered style that has brought Platner widespread attention as someone who could help Democrats reach young men will backfire with women.

As a shrinking number of Transportation Security Administration agents work to keep hourslong security lines moving despite not being paid, President Donald Trump stepped into the fray Saturday, announcing he will send Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to airports by Monday if Congress doesn’t agree to a plan to end the partial government shutdown.
