It seems like the Supreme Court is making more and more landmark decisions affecting Americans’ day-to-day lives. To explain the court’s role in democracy – how it started from the bottom and how it’s here – we spoke with Sarah Konsky, a law professor at the University of Chicago and the director of the university’s Jenner & Block Supreme Court and Appellate Clinic. She explains how the court is using its power more often and whether the other branches of government are pushing back.
