Supreme Court rules 9-0 NJ pregnancy centers can challenge donor subpoena in federal court
In First Choice Women's Resource Centers, Inc. v. Platkin, the Supreme Court unanimously rules that a network of five faith-based pregnancy centers in New Jersey can bring their First Amendment challenge to a state attorney general subpoena in federal court. Justice Neil Gorsuch writes for all nine justices. New Jersey AG Matthew Platkin subpoenaed First Choice in November 2023 through a "Reproductive Rights Strike Force" he created in 2022, demanding names, phone numbers, addresses, and employers of donors and up to 10 years of internal documents. The state acknowledged it had received no complaints against First Choice. Lower courts dismissed the challenge as unripe. Gorsuch writes that a government demand for private donor information itself creates a First Amendment injury — chilling associational rights — giving First Choice standing to sue immediately in federal court. The ruling cites NAACP v. Alabama (1958). It does not decide the underlying merits; the case returns to district court. The ACLU of New Jersey, which sided with the pregnancy centers on First Amendment grounds, praised the outcome.

Supreme Court rules 9-0 pregnancy center can challenge New Jersey subpoena for donor information
Featured
The Supreme Court unanimously ruled on April 29, 2026, in First Choice Women's Resource Centers v. Davenport that the New Jersey pregnancy center may challenge the subpoena in federal court. Justice Neil Gorsuch held that demands for donor identities burden First Amendment associational rights, tracing precedent to NAACP v. Alabama (1958). Platkin's subpoena sought names, phone numbers, and employment information for donors who gave through multiple channels. (Supreme Court of the United States, Apr. 29, 2026)

Supreme Court strikes down Trump's IEEPA-based tariffs
The Supreme Court ruled in 2026 that President Trump's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose broad import tariffs was unconstitutional. The Court of International Trade had struck down the tariffs in May 2025, ruling IEEPA did not authorize tariff imposition; the Supreme Court's ruling resolved the central legal question and required the administration to seek congressional authorization to maintain the tariff regime or identify an alternative statutory basis.
