ACS National Supreme Court Preview 2024-2025


Join ACS for our Annual National Supreme Court Preview, featuring a diverse group of constitutional and legal experts offering their insights into what we can expect from the upcoming U.S. Supreme Court Term that begins on October 7th.

Last Term, the Supreme Court’s 6-3 conservative super-majority continued its years-long work of ushering in the conservative legal movement’s vision for our country, including creating sweeping criminal immunity for presidents and giving judges the power to upend federal regulations based on their own policy preference. This work was done in the face of historically low public approval and serious ethical lapses by some justices, all of which has only increased calls for court reform. In the face of all this and a looming presidential election, what can we expect from the Court during the 2024-2025 Term?
