"Supreme Court Upholds Biden's 'Ghost Gun' Regulations: Pivotal Decisions and Disputes in the Spotlight"

In the latest developments from the US Supreme Court, a significant ruling was issued on March 26, 2025, where the Court upheld federal regulations on so-called "ghost gun" kits. In a 7-2 decision, the Supreme Court supported the Biden Administration's regulation that restricts access to these self-assemble firearm kits, which produce untraceable weapons known as "ghost guns."

Additionally, the Court has been grappling with a high-stakes dispute over Louisiana's congressional districts. On March 25, 2025, the justices heard arguments on whether Louisiana legislators should be sent back to the drawing board to redraw the state’s congressional districts following the 2020 census. This case involves critical issues related to the role of race in redistricting.

In another notable development, former President Donald Trump has requested the Supreme Court to intervene in two separate matters. Trump has asked the Court to lift a judge's block on a case related to "alien" issues and also to block the reinstatement of 16,000 terminated federal probationary employees, following a judge's order to reinstate them.

On the administrative front, Chief Justice John Roberts recently rebuked Trump over comments calling for the impeachment of federal judges whose rulings conflicted with the Trump administration's policies, particularly on deportation plans.

The Supreme Court is also set to decide on several other significant cases, including disputes over the Clean Air Act and the storage of highly toxic nuclear waste at privately run U.S. facilities.
