Supreme Court decisions

In Rhode Island, a coalition named Rhode Island Citizens for Responsible Government is campaigning against Question 1 on the November ballot, which proposes a constitutional convention. They argue that a convention could negatively impact women and minority groups, while supporters believe an update to the state constitution is overdue since the last convention in 1986. Meanwhile, the U.S. Supreme Court has overturned the Chevron doctrine, which previously granted federal agencies deference in ambiguous statutory authority cases, leading to significant implications for administrative actions. In Spain, the General Council of the Judiciary is set to elect a new president from seven Supreme Court candidates, all of whom have significant judicial backgrounds. Additionally, the Supreme Court is poised to address several major issues via emergency appeals before the new term begins, notably regarding the Biden administration's loan forgiveness program and related legal challenges from Republican-led states. The upcoming decisions could have far-reaching consequences for federal regulations and state governance.
