The conservative Supreme Court made 3 rulings this week.
- The Supreme Court ended the use of race-based affirmative action in college admissions, overruling nearly 50 years of precedent and depriving selective universities of a tool essential for keeping campuses diverse. Vote was 6 to 3.
- The Supreme Court struck down President Biden’s controversial proposal to cancel $400 billion in higher education loan repayments. Vote was 6 – 3.
- The Supreme Court ruled that a Christian graphic artist can refuse to design wedding websites for same-sex couples, saying a Colorado anti discrimination law violates the First Amendment, spelling a major defeat for gay rights at a time when anti-LGBTQ+ legislation is erupting across the nation. Vote was 6 – 3.
