Supreme Court Decisions Could Decide Course Of Healthcare, The Voting Rights Act, Student Speech Rights And More

View descriptionShare

The Supreme Court will soon release opinions on two dozen remaining cases, which include decisions on religious and gay rights, healthcare, the Voting Rights Act and more.

The court is expected to pass down at least one decision today, with more in the coming days. Today, the Supreme Court limited prosecutors’ ability to use an anti-hacking law to charge people with computer crimes. Conservative and liberal justices joined to rule 6-3 that prosecutors overreached when they used the federal Computer Fraud and Abuse Act to charge a police sergeant who used a database he had access to for work for a non-work purpose.

Today on AirTalk, we’re looking at the roundup of cases the Supreme Court will soon pass down opinions on, and what the repercussions could be. Questions? Give us a call at 866-893-5722.
