Welcome to Supreme Court Opinions. In this episode, you'll hear the Court's opinion in 303 Creative LLC v Elenis. In this case, the court considered this issue: Does application of the Colorado AntiDiscrimination Act to compel an artist to speak or stay silent violate the Free Speech Clause of the First Amendment? The case was decided on June 30, 2023. The Supreme Court held that the First Amendment prohibits Colorado from forcing a website designer to create expressive designs that convey messages with which the designer disagrees. Justice Neil Gorsuch authored the 6-3 majority opinion of the Court. The First Amendment exists to protect an “uninhibited marketplace of ideas” and individual liberty, which means the government generally cannot compel a person to espouse its preferred messages. The wedding websites Lorie Smith seeks to create in this case are “protected First Amendment speech.” Colorado's law, intending to enforce non-discrimination, would compel her to express messages contrary to her beliefs. Although public accommodations play a key role in promoting civil rights, these laws must bow to constitutional imperatives and cannot be used to compel individuals to express messages they disagree with. Justice Sonia Sotomayor authored a dissenting opinion, in which Justices Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson joined, lamenting that, “the Court, for the first time in its history, grants a business open to the public a constitutional right to refuse to serve members of a protected class.” The opinion is presented here in its entirety, but with citations omitted.

 As we count down to the release of the limited series After America, we are revisiting some past episodes of Deep Dive to help lay the groundwork for this important project that will attempt to answer the question - What would it actually look like if American democracy were to fail?Dark Tales: Music by Rahul Bhardwaj from Pixabay-------------As the gears of our democracy grind toward the 2024 election, the shadow of authoritarianism looms ever larger.  Dr. Sara Benesh discusses the Supreme Court's seismic shift to the right and its implications for our nation, and the need for transparency in our judiciary. Together, we peel back the layers of crucial decisions that are reshaping our society and spotlight the ethical conundrums that question the very underpinnings of our democracy.Dare to question the substance behind the Supreme Court's adherence to originalism. Through the lens of the Dobbs decision, we scrutinize whether this philosophy serves justice or justifies preconceived ideologies. Justice Alito's comments on legitimacy and the contentious association of Justice Thomas's wife with the January 6th events are put under the microscope. The episode probes the court's treatment of established norms, voting rights through an originalist view, and parallels with past presidential behaviors that flout institutional norms, painting a picture of a judiciary at a pivotal crossroads.Lastly, we dissect the Supreme Court's latest cases, from Moore v. Harper's potential to redefine election integrity, to the clash of free speech and anti-discrimination in 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis. Unpacking the shadow docket's influence on voting rights and redistricting, we confront California's Proposition 12 and its nationwide ripple effects. Ending on a note of apprehension, I share my fears for precedents that safeguard students of color and the sanctity of future elections. -------------------------Follow Deep Dive:InstagramPost.newsYouTube Email: deepdivewithshawn@gmail.com **Artwork: Dovi Design **Deep Dive Music: Joystock

Over the past decade, the tension between First Amendment rights and public accommodations laws has grown, as wedding vendors have refused to serve same-sex weddings pursuant to their consciences. On June 30, 2023, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision in 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis, which held that the free speech clause prohibits a state from forcing a website designer to create messages with which the designer disagrees. That said, the Court has yet to issue a clear decision that resolves these issues under the free exercise clause, even though wedding vendors almost invariably object to providing services on religious grounds. Indeed, when the free exercise question was addressed in Masterpiece Cakeshop Ltd. V. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, the Court largely punted on the issue and resolved the case on very narrow procedural grounds.Wedding-vendor litigation continues to percolate throughout the country and raises important questions for First Amendment jurisprudence, including whether the Supreme Court should reconsider Employment Division v. Smith, whether the free exercise clause extends protection to wedding vendors in a similar way to the free speech clause, and whether the so-called “hybrid rights doctrine” is a viable theory for analyzing religious claims to exemptions. Please join us as we discuss these issues and others with some of the leading scholars and practitioners in this space.Featuring: Prof. Andrew Koppelman, John Paul Stevens Professor of Law, Northwestern University School of LawProf. Douglas Laycock, Robert E.

As we navigate through the origins of La Mesa, we shed light on the early challenges, invigorating successes, and the catalytic role it played in propelling us to embrace the Great Commission like never before.We then peel back the layers of La Mesa's growth and evolution into the thriving Eden Village and resource center it is today. We reflect on our own personal transformations, spurred by a diverse team's dedication and the tangible love we've spread through initiatives like our food truck outreach. This conversation is an intimate look at how La Mesa's structure as an LLC and a 501c3 not only broadened our reach but also created a sustainable model of ministry that nurtures a sense of family for those without one.Finally, we cast our gaze toward the horizon, envisioning the future growth of La Mesa and Eden Village. The episode is a celebration of the grassroots impact and the replicable framework that's sparking a wave of service-minded endeavors in other communities. We discuss our strategic vision, the entrepreneurial spirit within the church, and the joyous experience of discussing the forward march of leadership development within our mission.

The Supreme Court’s decisions in 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis and in Groff v. DeJoy posed issues about religious freedom in the workplace and religiously motivated speech in the marketplace. This panel will consider the cases and their implications for religious freedom, especially how future cases might apply the tests articulated by the Court for “substantial costs” to a business for making an accommodation in Groff, and for what counts as expressive messages protected against the application of state anti-discrimination laws under 303 Creative. The panel will also consider the broader question of if there is value in accommodating religion in the workplace despite conflicts with employer preferences, and likewise, if there is a value in accommodating businesses (especially small businesses, where this typically arises) in light of broader societal preferences (such as non-discrimination law). Observers indicate that Title VII represents statutory values and 303 Creative raises Free Exercise constitutional values, but both cases pose questions about making room for faith in public life.Featuring:Prof. William Eskridge, Alexander M.

President, CEO, and general counsel of the Alliance Defending Freedom, Kristen Waggoner, joins us for a discussion on freedom of speech and religious liberty. ADF has played various roles in 74 U.S. Supreme Court victories and since 2011, has won cases before the Court 15 times.  According to its website, “ADF is the world's largest legal organization committed to protecting religious freedom, free speech, marriage and family, parental rights, and the sanctity of life.” ADF has litigated many high profile and controversial free speech cases, including the recent Supreme Court case involving a web designer who didn't want to be compelled to design websites for same-sex weddings. Before that, ADF litigated the 2018 Masterpiece Cakeshop case, which involved a cake designer who similarly didn't want to provide his services for same-sex weddings on religious grounds.

In the Public Interest is pleased to continue our miniseries examining landmark decisions recently issued by the United States Supreme Court. Our third episode focuses on the Court's decision in 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis, a case concerning whether a Christian website designer has a First Amendment right to refuse to design wedding websites for same-sex couples. In this episode, co-host John Walsh explores the 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis decision with Eric Olson, former Solicitor General of the state of Colorado, who argued the case in front of the Court. Olson and Walsh delve into the history of other Supreme Court cases where Colorado businesses have claimed a First Amendment right to refuse services to same-sex couples. Olson shares his unique, first-hand perspective on the scope of the core legal questions the Court addressed in its majority opinion. They also analyze notable points in the dissenting opinion issued by Justice Sonia Sotomayor and what the Court's decision in this case may mean for the fight for LGBTQ+ rights in the United States.

On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: An unclassified FBI document has finally been made public. The document involves an alleged bribary scheme between then Vice President Joe Biden and a Ukrainian oil executive when President Biden's son Hunter was a board member for the oil company. Former President Donald Trump is headed to trial on May 20th, 2024. Prosecutors aimed for December but defense lawyers wanted it "after" the 2024 Presidential election. Now it won't start until well after the Republican nominee is clear but before that person is officially nominated at the Republican National Convention. Meanwhile the White House held a discussion today with AI executives looking for ways to protect the public, as the administration announces it has secured “voluntary commitments…to manage the risks posed by AI.” Last month, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of a website designer, Lori Smith, in the case of 303 Creative LLC v Elenis. Jonathan Scruggs of Alliance Defending Freedom joins us to share his unique perspective on the significance and impact of this decision. Lastly tonight, as the Azerbaijani blockade of Nagorno-Karabakh is now in its 7th month, experts are growing increasingly fearful for the Christian majority Armenian enclave.

After several trying months, Matt and Sam can finally discuss the lawsuit against KYE and Dissent magazine filed by Young Americans Foundation , the successor organization to Young Americans for Freedom. (We prevailed, for now anyway.) Then we turn to three SCOTUS rulings from the end of the session: (1) Biden vs Nebraska  (the student debt ruling); (2) Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard (the affirmative action ruling); and (3) 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis (the gay wedding website design ruling). Each of these rulings represents a victory for the conservative legal movement, an exercise of raw power by the court, and a blow to dignity and decent policy for millions of Americans. Taken together, they help us understand  the workings of the conservative intellectual pipeline — at law schools, fellowships, and well-endowed non-profits — to change federal policy. How do conservative institutions work together to (in the eyes of the law) turn victims into oppressors and vice versa?

This week, Eric, Dan, and Emily discuss the recent decision in the 303 Creative from the Supreme Court. Is bad journalism the major culprit in people misunderstanding both the holding in the case, as well as the very facts of it? How much does it matter that it's a First Amendment speech case and not a First Amendment religious case? Next, they tackle the newly announced plan from the Biden administration to cancel a load of student loan debt and ask the question, this again? Then, they examine the story of Hunter Biden's daughter who has not been accepted or acknowledge by President Biden. Is it fair to hold this against him when making a political analysis of his fitness for the office? And finally, they look at two stories – the elevation of Archbishop Victor Manuel Fernández, who authored a book 30 years ago titled “Heal Me with Your Mouth. The Art of Kissing,” to the Vatican's Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, and the statements by Bishop Américo Aguiar about not seeking to convert people at World Youth Day – and ask the question: what's up with the Catholic Church? 303 Creative LLC v.

Elenis, is about a Christian website designer who didn't want to make websites for same-sex weddings. The court decided that it was her right to choose what kind of work she wants to do. The second case, Groff v. DeJoy, involves a postal worker who didn't want to work on Sundays because of his religious beliefs. The court sided with the worker, saying that employers must make reasonable accommodations for employees' religious practices. These two cases could change the way businesses treat their employees' rights to free speech and religious freedom.Joshua Ritter, Esq., Media Legal Analyst and Podcast Host of "True Crime Daily: The Sidebar", lends his legal expertise to help us navigate these complex rulings, discussing their wider impact on society and the potential contradictions within the court's interpretations.

As the Supreme Court's June term wraps up with a slew of awful decisions, Dahlia Lithwick is joined by Slate's own Mark Joseph Stern to analyze 303 Creative LLC v Elenis, a case with startling implications for the dignity and equal treatment of LGBTQ couples and families. They also discuss the new reporting that shines light on the hall of mirrors that brought the case to court. Then, Dahlia and Mark are joined by Dalié Jiménez, Professor of Law at the University of California, Irvine School of Law, and Director of the Student Loan Law Initiative at UCI Law to discuss the court's decision to strike down the Biden administration's student loan forgiveness program. Finally, Dahlia turns to Michaele Turnage Young of the NAACP LDF to take a closer look at Thursday's affirmative action decision, which outlawed race-conscious admissions in most higher education contexts.  In this week's Amicus Plus segment, Dahlia is joined by Slate's Mark Joseph Stern to answer a listener question about something that has us all scratching our heads in the wake of Moore v Harper, and look ahead to some gun safety litigation that's winding its way up to the High Court.

Back in 2017, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Masterpiece Cakeshop v. Colorado Civil Rights Commission, a case involving a cake shop owner who refused to create a wedding cake for a same-sex couple. In a 7-2 decision, the court found that the state had violated the cake maker's religious objections. Now the court is considering another case out of Colorado that could expand the right to discriminate under the guise of free speech. In the fourth episode of Dissent, Jordan Smith and law professor Hila Keren discuss 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis, a challenge to the state's Anti-Discrimination Act brought by Lorie Smith, a website designer seeking to refuse wedding design services to same-sex couples. Unlike Masterpiece Cakeshop, the 303 Creative case has no injured parties; it is a preemptive attempt to allow businesses to practice unfettered discrimination. join.theintercept.com/donate/now Hosted on Acast.

Today we're starting with an update on the Kanye West (Ye) controversy after some of you pointed out that the symbol Ye tweeted (which led to his eventual Twitter suspension) was that of the Raelian Movement, a UFO-based religious group. The story just keeps getting weirder. We discuss how this might tie into his statements of late and why his roots in black supremacy theology are problematic. Then, we look into 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis, a case that questions whether Lorie Smith, an artist who runs her own design studio, 303 Creative, should be forced by Colorado law to create websites promoting messages that contradict her beliefs about marriage. We break down yesterday's arguments and explain why this is yet another monumental case to determine what free speech and religious liberty mean in this country. We finish with the tragic story of Athena Strand, a 7-year-old girl who was kidnapped and murdered by a FedEx driver. We reiterate why the death penalty is not only just, it's necessary in cases like this. --- Timecodes: (01:07) Intro / merch discount / podcast update (06:25) Kanye West update (18:25) 303 Creative LLC v.
