[[link removed]][[link removed]]John,
Today, we just announced [[link removed]] the release of our newest report: “ In the Dead of Night: The Supreme Court's Use of the Shadow Docket to Enact a Radical and Hyper-Partisan Agenda [[link removed]] ” .
The shadow docket, traditionally used to handle noncontroversial procedural decisions and emergency relief, has become the latest weapon the Court’s conservative majority has used to undermine the constitutional rights and hard-won legal protections of everyday people. These decisions come down, without the Court — or the public — having properly heard the merits of a case.
Our report outlines eight key examples of abuse, including:
*
Allowing
the
unconstitutional
Texas
abortion
ban
to
take
effect;
*
Allowing
President
Trump’s
Muslim
ban;
and
*
Allowing
President
Trump’s
ban
on
trans
military
service
members.
READ THE REPORT [[link removed]]Court reform is clearly imperative, or we can expect these abuses of power to continue undermining our basic constitutional protections.

President
