Last week, the Supreme Court issued three important decisions that will impact public policymaking for decades.
On Thursday, the Supreme Court ruled that the use of race in college admissions is a violation of the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment, dealing a major blow to affirmative action in education.
On Friday, the Supreme Court determined in a 6-3 decision that states cannot force workers to promote messages that violate their religious beliefs, a significant victory for those who support religious liberty.
But it was the high court’s decision on Friday to strike down President Biden’s plan to cancel hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan debt that could prove to be the most important – but perhaps not for the reason you think.
