Pivotal Supreme Court Cases in March: A Comprehensive Recap
About this Episode
As of the latest updates, the US Supreme Court is in the midst of its March argument session, which began on March 24 and will continue until April 2. This session is packed with significant cases that address a range of critical issues.
On March 24, the Court heard arguments in two notable cases: *Louisiana v. Callais*, which involves a challenge to a lower court's decision to strike down a congressional voting map that created a second majority-Black district in Louisiana, and *Riley v. Bondi*, a dispute over the 30-day deadline to seek review of a ruling by the Board of Immigration Appeals denying withholding of deportation.
The following day, March 25, the justices delved into environmental law with *EPA v. Calumet Shreveport Refining* and *Oklahoma v. EPA*. These cases focus on whether challenges to the EPA's decisions under the Clean Air Act must be litigated in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
Today, March 26, the Court is set to hear *FCC v. Consumers’ Research*, a case that challenges a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit. This case involves the validity of an FCC program aimed at improving internet and phone services in underserved areas, with the appeals court ruling that the program violates the Constitution by improperly delegating Congress’s power.
In addition to these arguments, the Court is also expected to issue one or more opinions from the current term today. This could bring significant developments in various legal areas, although the specific cases to be decided have not been announced.
The upcoming days will see the Court tackling more contentious issues, including a case on whether Wisconsin violated the First Amendment by denying a tax exemption to a religious organization, and another on the federal law governing second petitions for federal post-conviction relief.
