O ver the last two years, the Supreme Court’s new 6-3 constitutionalist majority has delivered a string of victories for conservatives unprecedented in the modern era. At the conclusion of its most recent term, the Court handed down a series of landmark decisions — most notably in Students for Fair Admis- sions , Inc. v. President and Fellows of
Harvard College, and Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. University of North Carolina , which ruled that affirmative action in college admissions is uncon- stitutional — a long-time goal of the conservative legal movement and a significant blow to the left’s identity politics apparatus. In 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis , the Court decided a landmark religious liberty ruling — determining that a
Christian website designer could not be compelled to violate her sincerely held religious beliefs by creating a website for a same-sex marriage. And on the final day of the Court’s most recent term, the justices ruled against the Biden administration’s illegal student debt forgiveness scheme, saving the American taxpayer hundreds of billions of dollars.
