A new Supreme Court term began this month, and with it comes more opportunities for the MAGA Roberts Court to deliver wins for Donald Trump while eroding our rights and consolidating power under the executive branch.
That’s why we hosted an exclusive member briefing on what we can expect from the Court this term.
We were joined by Lisa Graves, one of the nation’s leading experts on how dark money and right-wing special interests have corrupted our courts and fueled attacks on democracy. Lisa has spent her career exposing the networks of power behind Trump’s judicial takeover and fighting to protect civil liberties and the integrity of our legal system.
Alongside Lisa, Alyssa Milano and People For experts Svante Myrick, Marge Baker, and Elliot Mincberg walked us through what to expect this term and what we can do together to fight back.
Here’s what was on the agenda:
· The Roberts Court: How it’s already reshaped our rights and where it’s headed next
· The role of dissenters: Why their voices matter and how they shape the future
· This term’s battles: The cases we know, the shadow docket, and looming threats
· Why lower courts matter: The good decisions that are building toward justice
· What we can do: How to stop Trump’s judicial nominees and advocate for reform
