Justice Alito recuses from Supreme Court climate case
Original: Alito recuses from major climate change case to be decided by the Supreme Court
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has recused himself from a major climate change case the Court is set to decide. No reason for the recusal was given in the initial reports. His absence could affect the outcome, as the remaining eight justices may split on an issue that has previously divided the Court along ideological lines.
Why now: Recusals by Supreme Court justices are rare, and this one comes in a high-stakes climate case that could shift US environmental policy.
