Supreme Court Rules on Guns, Reverse Discrimination, and Religious Tax Exemptions
- The U.S. Supreme Court issued unanimous rulings on Thursday addressing religious tax exemptions, reverse discrimination claims, and gun manufacturer liability.
- These rulings resolved cases including Wisconsin's denial of a Catholic charity’s tax exemption, a sexual orientation workplace discrimination claim, and Mexico's lawsuit against U.S. Gun makers.
- The Court reversed Wisconsin’s refusal to grant tax relief to Catholic Charities for violating the First Amendment and made it easier for majority-group workers to bring reverse discrimination claims.
- In a 9-0 decision authored by Justice Kagan, the Court dismissed Mexico's $10 billion suit against Smith & Wesson, citing the 2005 law shielding gunmakers from liability, stating Mexico failed to prove gun makers knowingly supported illegal trafficking.
- These decisions likely expand religious tax exemptions, lower barriers for majority-group discrimination claims, and confirm gun industry protections, shaping future legal actions in these areas.
