For today’s show, we present part 2 of Carousel’s annual SCOTUS roundup about some of the major U.S. Supreme Court decisions coming out of the latest session.

For the first half, law professor Robert Yablon breaks down Brnovich v. Democratic National Committee and Americans for Prosperity Foundation v. Bonta, two cases that could have an impact on voting rights and campaign finance laws.

Then, education professor Kirsten Hextrum talks about what the NCAA decision means for college sports and what’s happening with college athletes across the country.
