Justice in Joe's case Kennedy, a former Washington State High School football coach at a public school he is working on, lost his job after praying at the 50-yard line after the match.
The school district said it had suspended Kennedy to avoid the school appearing to support a particular belief in violation of the constitutional provisions.
Kennedy told CNN in an interview that "all Americans have public trust and should not be worried about being fired for it."
"I think it's important to keep our promises, especially to God," he said.
Liberal judges in court, Judge Stephen Breyer, Judge Elena Kagan, and Judge Sonia Sotomayor feel in oral arguments that players are being forced to pray from school. He revealed that he was worried about that.
Immigrants: Stay in Mexico
Can Judges End the Trump Era Border Policy, Known as "Staying in Mexico" by the Biden Administration? I'm considering whether. Lower courts have so far prevented Biden from ending the policy.
Under an unprecedented program launched in 2019, the Department of Homeland Security, instead of detaining or releasing certain non-Mexico citizens entering the United States, Mexico You can send it back to. Their immigration procedure was carried out.
Critics call this policy inhumane and state that it exposes asylum seekers to dangerous and filthy situations. The case raises questions not only about immigration law, but also about the president's control over policy and diplomatic relations with neighboring countries.
Climate change: EPA authorities regulating emissions from power plants
The judge said that the EPA regulates carbon emissions from existing power plants. Determine the proceedings regarding authority. Conflicts that could harm the Biden administration's attempts to reduce emissions. It's the moment scientists are warning about the accelerating pace of global warming.
The court's decision to intervene and hear cases involving environmentalists as there are currently no rules. The lower court wiped out the rules of the Trump era in 2021, and the Biden administration's EPA is now working on new rules.
However, the fact that there were enough votes to address this issue attacked some as a positive subsidy, and even before the new rules appeared in the book, the courts of the EPA Indicates that you want to limit the scope of permissions.
'Pill Mill'
The so-called "Pill Mill" incident is in the midst of a national opioid crisis, reducing the ability of physicians to dispense controlled substances. Let me. Pain management against government push to prosecute doctors prescribing dangerous medicines without medical justification.
Behind the task are two doctors' lawyers convicted of prescribing dangerous opioids without valid medical justification in violation of federal law. Doctors are accusing their beliefs and long sentences, claiming that the jury could have reasonably considered whether they could reasonably believe that they were acting within the boundaries of the expert. increase.
A dispute arose as some members of the court expressed concern over the abuse of federal criminal law that could threaten innocent conduct.
Parliamentary War Authority: Veterans' Labor Protection
In another dispute, courts may weaken veterans' labor protection. LeRoy Torres, a veteran and former employee of the Texas Public Safety Department, asked state agencies to do the same job to deal with service-related obstacles, no longer being able to serve as state soldiers. Said that. When he was denied work, he filed a proceeding under federal law aimed at protecting the reemployment rights of returning veterans.
However, Texas replied that it would not be affected by such proceedings filed under the Federal Unified Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act passed under the war powers of Congress. .. Now the court will decide on a clash that diminishes Congress's power to provide defense against the state's ability to determine when Congress will be sued. This ruling could affect thousands of active and reserve service members nationwide working in state agencies.
Native American Land
Non-Indian Victor Manuel Castro Fuerta is an eastern band of Cherokee Indians.
His conviction was wiped out after the State Court of Appeals ruled that the state lacked jurisdiction because the crime occurred in an Indian country. Now the court decides whether the state has the authority to prosecute non-Indians who have committed crimes against Indians in Indian countries.
In 2020, Judge Neil Gorsuch, in the opinion of the court's liberals, does not have jurisdiction to prosecute Indians who have committed crimes in Indian countries. There were many opinions.
Fair Judgment Law
Carlos Conception (convicted of crack cocaine crime in 2009) is passed a fair judgment law Just before, I was convicted as a career criminal. He reduced the penalties for his judgment on federal crimes, including crack cocaine.
In 2018, Congress passed a first-step law that allows FSA changes to be made retroactively and reduce decisions. In 2019, Conception called for a reduction in sentence, stating that he should no longer be considered a career criminal. He said the court should consider the factors in making such a decision, including his post-criminal rehabilitation.
