SCOTUS rulings in the news

On Thursday, the Supreme Court ruled that affirmative action policies at Harvard and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are unconstitutional. This decision was largely hailed by the 2024 GOP presidential contenders, including former President Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R). Trump said that the decision handed down today was “a great day for America” while DeSantis said that “the Supreme Court has correctly upheld the Constitution and ended discrimination by colleges and universities.”
