Tuesday round-up

Briefly:

  • Jake Holland reports at Bloomberg Law that “[o]nly 17% of oral arguments before the Supreme Court in the 2018-19 term were presented by women,” a number that “remains nearly unchanged from half a decade ago.”
  • At Take Care, Leah Litman argues that the Trump administration’s actions between the Supreme Court’s decision blocking the inclusion of a citizenship question on the census and the eventual decision to forego the question “may have consequences for the administration, the Supreme Court, and the targeted victims of the citizenship question.”
  • At The American Spectator, Adam Carrington observes that several opinions this term demonstrate the enduring influence of Justice Antonin Scalia’s textualist approach to legal interpretation.

We rely on our readers to send us links for our round-up. If you have or know of a recent (published in the last two or three days) article, post, podcast or op-ed relating to the Supreme Court that you’d like us to consider for inclusion in the round-up, please send it to roundup [at] scotusblog.com.
