On June 7, 2024, a large group of reporters covering the Supreme Court (including this reporter) sent a letter to Chief Justice John Roberts, asking him to consider live-streaming the audio of the court’s opinion announcements. They have not received a response to the letter, which they are now publicly releasing. The letter appears below. (In an article we ran on June 3, Kit Beyer of Fix the Court also urged the justices to livestream opinion announcements.)
