The Supreme Court has saved two of its biggest cases for last. One could alter the EPA's ability to regulate greenhouse gas emissions. The other will decide the fate of the 'Remain in Mexico' policy.

— are also important cases that could have major effects on the executive branch's ability to make policy.Environmental protectionis all about the federal government's ability to create environmental regulations. The challengers are a group of 27 Republican attorneys general, many from states with traditions in the fossil fuel industry, including West Virginia.

Essentially, they argue that the executive branch of government — which includes the EPA — should not be allowed to set rules and regulations around greenhouse gas emissions. Rather, it should be Congress to do so, they say. Neither of the actual regulations at the heart of the case — the Obama-era Clean Power Plan, and the Trump-era Affordable Clean Energy rule — are currently in effect.

Despite that, a wide-ranging ruling could weaken the federal government's ability to combat climate change by regulating greenhouse gas emissions.

Supreme Court’s term closes with political, media leaders questioning 'legitimacy' – and that's alarmingSince the Supreme Court ruled on abortion last week well-known politicians have challenged the court's legitimacy and we've seen a crisis of faith in the institution. They became more legitimate by correcting a decision that was based on activism and not facts. Roe vs Wade being overturned is the Democrats fault.
