US Supreme Court poised to rule on gun laws and transgender athletes
The justices are weighing 26 rulings, including disputes over birthright citizenship, transgender sports bans and presidential control of independent agencies.
- The Supreme Court faces an extraordinary showdown with President Donald Trump as justices scramble to finalize over two dozen opinions before the summer recess, including rulings on birthright citizenship, agency control, and election laws.
- Seeking to reshape independent agencies, Trump has made executive firings a central theme, attempting to remove Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook and Federal Trade Commission member Rebecca Slaughter without showing cause.
- Justices are weighing Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship, a principle enshrined in the 14th Amendment since 1868; Trump posted that the ruling would be a "DISASTER" and "unsustainable, unsafe, and incredibly costly."
- In related election disputes, Republicans seek to tighten mail-in ballot deadlines, while the court appears ready to narrow a federal law barring drug users from owning guns, creating friction with the National Rifle Association.
- Ben Wizner, deputy legal director of the American Civil Liberties Union, noted that while the court has lines, many cases reflect a long-term ideological project independent of current presidential pressure.
