On Wednesday, June 18, the Supreme Court released several significant opinions. One of the key cases was _United States v. Skrmetti_, where the Court addressed a Tennessee law that prohibits healthcare providers from prescribing puberty blockers or hormones to minors for the purpose of gender identity transition. This decision has significant implications for healthcare and gender identity rights.
Another notable case was _Nuclear Regulatory Commission v. Texas_, which involved a dispute over the licensing process for a facility to store spent nuclear fuel in West Texas. The Court's ruling in this case could impact how such facilities are regulated and approved in the future.
The Court also decided _EPA v. Calumet_ and _Oklahoma v. EPA_, both of which deal with environmental regulations and the authority of the Environmental Protection Agency. These decisions are crucial for understanding the scope of federal environmental oversight.
In addition, the Court issued its opinion in _Perttu v. Richards_, a case involving allegations of sexual harassment and retaliation by a prison employee against inmates. This ruling touches on important issues of prisoner rights and institutional accountability.
Apart from these decisions, the Supreme Court has also been busy setting its agenda for the upcoming term. On Monday, June 16, the Court added two new cases to its docket for the 2025-26 term. One case, _First Choice Women’s Resource Centers v. Platkin_, involves a challenge by crisis pregnancy centers to a New Jersey subpoena, raising questions about whether these centers can challenge state subpoenas in federal court. The other case pertains to efforts to hold oil companies responsible for their activities in Louisiana over 80 years ago, highlighting issues of jurisdiction and the appropriate courts for such disputes.
As we move forward, the Court is scheduled to convene for a public non-argument session on Friday, June 20, where it may announce additional opinions.
