Supreme Court opens term with gun rights, religious liberty cases
The U.S. Supreme Court is beginning a new term featuring cases on religious liberty, gun rights, and federalism. A major focus is a climate-related lawsuit involving Suncor Energy and Boulder County, which tests the limits of state versus federal authority.
Why it matters
The court's rulings this term could significantly alter the legal landscape regarding environmental regulation and individual rights.
The Supreme Court opens its new term Monday with cases that could reshape religious liberty, gun rights, immigration and the balance between state and federal authority. While the last term was dominated by major cases testing presidential power — including Trump’s authority to restrict birthright citizenship, impose tariffs and fire independent agency officials — many of the court’s marquee cases this term span a wide range of issues, including federalism and individual rights. "There’s a couple of religious freedom cases," Carrie Severino, president of JCN, told Fox News Digital. "We have a couple cases that touch on state and federal preemption, but I’m not sure there’s an easy theme for all of them." The blockbuster case this term is Suncor Energy v.
