- wahern 6y agoNo, just Thomas. See PDF page 52 at https://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/061520zor_f2bh.pdf https://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/061520zor_f2... My guess is that many of the justices thought that granting certiorari at a critical moment in the public debate might provide a convenient excuse for Congress to sit on its hands. Sotomayor and Ginsburg have both previously signaled their willingness to reexamine the precedent, yet neither wrote a dissent. If Congress does nothing I'd expect SCOTUS to revisit the issue in the next couple of years.
