The Supreme Court will resume oral arguments the week of Jan. 12, taking on cases dealing with female athletics, gun laws, and the president’s attempt to fire a member of the Federal Reserve.
Here are the top cases to watch.
1. Female Sports
The Supreme Court on Jan. 13 will hear arguments in two cases—West Virginia v. B.P.J. and Little v. Hecox—that focus on West Virginia’s and Idaho’s laws barring males from competing in female sports. The eventual ruling is expected to tackle key questions about how federal law and the Constitution treat sex and gender.
