Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. closed out the Supreme Court’s term on Friday with a warning to justices to cut out the carping, saying that the increasingly harsh language they’re using in their opinions to attack each other’s rulings is hurting the court.
He issued the admonition in the court’s final decision of the year, a 6-3 ruling halting President Biden’s student loan forgiveness program. That ruling prompted a fierce dissent from the three Democrat-appointed justices, who said the high court was breaking all the norms of how the judiciary should operate.“It has become a disturbing feature of some recent opinions to criticize the decisions with which they disagree as going beyond the proper role of the judiciary,” he wrote.
“Reasonable minds may disagree with our analysis — in fact, at least three do,” he wrote, pointing to the dissenters. “We do not mistake this plainly heartfelt disagreement for disparagement. It is important that the public not be misled either. Any such misperception would be harmful to this institution and our country.”
It also comes after a couple of years of monumental decisions that overturned the Roe v. Wade decision that established a national right to abortion, struck down some state gun control laws and ruled against affirmative action policies used by many of the country’s most prominent universities.In one, the court said LGBT individuals cannot force creative businesses to serve them when it would mean the businesses would have to express statements that run contrary to what they believe.
