In New Term, Supreme Court To Take On Hot-Button Issues

NPR describes, In New Term, Supreme Court To Take On Hot-Button Issues. "The constitutional challenge to President Obama's health care overhaul almost certainly will be decided this term, but at this point it has not formally made it onto the docket. Also making their way to the court are cases involving almost every hot-button issue in America: immigration; affirmative action; gay marriage; and the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act, the federal law barring federal recognition of gay marriage even in states where it is legal."
