In a 7 to 2 vote, the Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday in favor of
two California churches arguing they should not have to face
employment discrimination lawsuits brought by former teachers. The
ruling makes it so that religious schools are exempt from most
employment discrimination claims, expanding religious freedom. The
Supreme Court on Wednesday also cleared the way for the Trump

Hastings College of the Law, about these rulings and other Supreme
Court decisions expected to come.
