The latest ruling of the US Supreme Court is about far more than immigration.
The 6-3 ruling marks the second time in 2026 when the court invalidated a major Trump initiative. This comes months after it strike down his sweeping global tariffs.
President Donald Trump’s trade policy has acquired a second life. After the US Supreme Court curtailed key elements of the architecture that defined much of his economic agenda, the White House has returned with a familiar instrument wrapped in a different justification.
Trump said his administration will determine the issue over the next few months and issue the new and legally permissible tariffs.
"We are studying all these developments for their implications," the Union Ministry of Commerce & Industry said in a statement.
The Court this week ruled to outlaw race-based admissions to Harvard University and the University of North Carolina, saying these policies violate the Constitution's equal protection clause.
US President Joe Biden has signed an executive order on abortion access, as the issue continues to divide the society.
The verdict takes away a woman's legal right to abortion generally borne out of a decision to terminate pregnancy on grounds of rape, incest or deformities of the embryo in the womb.
Codifying the abortion rights through a legislation by congress is the only option now and that is only possible with more Democrats in both chambers.
The nomination is historic for more than one reason. If she is confirmed, four women will sit together on the nine-member court for the first time. “For too long, our government, our court hasn't looked like America,” Mr Biden said on Friday. “I believe it’s time that we have a court that reflects the full talent and greatness of our nation.”
