Experts discuss 2024 Supreme Court rulings
Manage episode 429721447 series 2456288
The Supreme Court issued several major decisions, including Trump v. The United States, which ruled the former president is partly immune for his involvement in efforts on Jan. 6 to overthrow the 2020 election results.
In another case, it overturned the precedent set by the 1984 Chevron v. Natural Resources Defense Council, which had given deference to governmental agencies in interpreting laws it administers.
Then toward end of June, the court's 5-4 decision said the Sackler family could not be shielded from civil lawsuits for its role in the opioid crisis. But it stalls a $6 billion settlement that would go to states and and victims of the epidemic in compensation.
The court also made key decisions on cases addressing racial gerrymandering, abortion access and care, gun rights, and restrictions on people experiencing homelessness.
We'll talk with guests Friday about these decisions and their implications for the US legal system.
