Neil Gorsuch Could Rule on These 3 Big Cases If He Joins Supreme Court Soon

Neil Gorsuch Could Rule on These 3 Big Cases If He Joins Supreme Court Soon
Fred Lucas / @FredLucasWH / February 01, 2017



President Donald Trump’s nominee for the Supreme Court could have a say in rulings on religious freedom, transgender bathrooms in schools, and private property rights, if he is confirmed before April 16.

. . .

Authorities on the Supreme Court say the likely big ticket items for the spring will be three cases.

One is regarding whether a Christian school in Missouri is entitled to compete for the same state dollars as nonreligious schools. The outcome could affect so-called Blaine amendments in states across the country.

The second case involves property rights in Wisconsin. The third is a transgender bathroom case out of a Virginia high school, and how broadly the federal government may interpret Title IX, a federal law that bars sexual discrimination in education.
