The Supreme Court this morning begins to hear arguments in its final argument session of 2018. What an amazing year this has been—a blockbuster term ended in June, a justice retired in July and a second new justice in 18 months took his seat. We spoke with a former Souter clerk who goes before the court for the first time Tuesday as amicus counsel in a fascinating clash between state and Indian sovereignty. Plus: GoFundMe campaigns are taking off for amicus parties in a 21st Amendment challenge. And the justices are scheduled soon to take first looks at challenges involving equal pay and transgender discrimination. Thanks for reading.
