This year’s Home Stretch at the Supreme Court panel discussion was moderated by Slate’s Mark Joseph Stern, and featured Pamela S. Karlan, Kenneth and Harle Montgomery Professor of Public Interest Law and Co-Director of the Supreme Court Litigation Clinic at Stanford Law School; Devi M. Rao, Director of the Washington D.C. office and the Supreme Court and Appellate Program at the MacArthur Justice Center; Deepak Gupta, Founding Principal of Gupta Wessler LLP and Lecturer at Harvard Law School; and CAC’s own Chief Counsel Brianne Gorod. Opening remarks for the event were be given by CAC President Elizabeth Wydra.

Our panel of distinguished experts discussed some of the most significant cases from this Supreme Court Term and looked ahead to major rulings and issues on the horizon. From battles over trans equality and guns to voting rights and access to the courts already on the Court’s merits docket, to important questions about the separation of powers and presidential overreach on the Court’s shadow docket, there was much to discuss as the Justices enter this Term’s home stretch.
