Despite the implementation of near-total bans in 14 states, the national volume of abortions in the U.S. has remained steady or increased. This resilience is driven by a surge in medication abortion, the expansion of telehealth, and the emergence of state 'shield laws' that protect providers across jurisdictional lines.
A landmark Supreme Court decision has cleared the path for U.S. importers to seek billions of dollars in refunds for tariffs previously deemed lawful under agency discretion. Wall Street firms are now aggressively positioning themselves to capitalize on these claims through litigation finance and equity investments in heavily impacted retail and manufacturing sectors.
The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear a challenge regarding copyright protections for AI-generated art, effectively upholding lower court rulings that require human authorship. The decision leaves AI-generated works without federal copyright protection, reinforcing a major legal barrier for the generative AI industry.
