Eleven Ninth Circuit Judges Urge Supreme Court to Protect Oak Flat

Eleven judges from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals have signed a statement urging the Supreme Court to take up the Oak Flat case, pressing the high court to protect the sacred Apache site in Arizona from destruction by copper mining. Their intervention adds significant judicial weight to ongoing religious-liberty and Indigenous-rights arguments.
