Two Big Ones From the Supremes

The Lunch Whistle has blown at the law mines.  Two big wins from the Supreme Court for the Administration and the pro-life movement.

 

First, for the Administration, the Court upheld Trump’s travel ban 5-4.  Go here to read the 92 page ruling.  (Judicial bloat is really getting out of hand.)

For Pro-lifers, the Court signaled the death knell for the attempt by California to compel pro-abort messages from pro-life crisis pregnancy centers.  Go here to read the text  of the decision written by Justice Clarence Thomas.

These decisions would have gone the opposite way without Gorsuch on the Court.  Elections do matter.  More later in the week after I have had an opportunity to read the decsions.

I was popping in to say the same thing Bob pointed out.
Unions get to keep the power to bargain for people who do not want them to do it– but at least they don’t get to CHARGE people for it!
