Latest News About Supreme Court Decisions

Here are some of the latest high-impact Supreme Court decision developments reported in recent coverage, including what the Court did and what it left undecided.

Major recent Supreme Court decisions (highlights)

• Birthright citizenship / federal court blocks (procedural ruling): The Court lifted national temporary barriers to a Trump-directed policy affecting birthright citizenship, ruling 6–3 that lower courts’ temporary blocks “likely exceeded” the equitable authority granted to them by Congress—while not ruling on the underlying constitutionality of the policy itself.[1]

• Affordable Care Act (ACA) medication/service coverage provision (challenge rejected): The Court also rejected a challenge to an ACA requirement that health insurers cover certain medications and services (the reporting specifically notes coverage including HIV-preventive drugs and cholesterol-lowering treatments).[1]

• Education and LGBTQ-related library/book content (parents’ withdrawal rights): The Court allowed parents of elementary school-aged children to withdraw children from classes involving books featuring LGBTQ+ characters, according to the same reporting.[1]
