Justice Jackson warns an increasingly partisan Supreme Court
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson cautioned her colleagues about the appearance of political bias in recent Supreme Court rulings. She highlighted the expedited implementation of the Louisiana v. Callais decision, which affected majority‑Black congressional districts. Other justices responded, with some defending the Court’s neutrality while others criticized Jackson’s remarks.
- ▪Jackson warned the Court to be scrupulous when handling cases with political overtones, referencing the Louisiana v. Callais ruling.
- ▪The majority voted to nullify a key provision of the 1965 Voting Rights Act and waived the usual 32‑day certification period, prompting immediate political effects.
- ▪Southern states quickly began redrawing majority‑Black districts, leading to concerns about diminished minority voting power.
- ▪Justice Samuel Alito dismissed Jackson’s criticism as “baseless and insulting,” while Justice Amy Coney Barrett emphasized that justices are not “politicians in robes.”
