The Supreme Court has another round of major cases lined up for December, with oral arguments expected on the death penalty, campaign spending, religious liberty, and presidential power.

One case in the month will be on Dec. 8, Trump v. Slaughter, which focuses on the president’s ability to remove high-level bureaucrats without interference from Congress.
