Latest 5-4 Ruling Further Proof of the Alito Effect

Injustice 5, Justice 4
The editors of The New York Times write: "The Supreme Court struck a blow for discrimination this week by stripping a key civil rights law of much of its potency. The majority opinion, by Justice Samuel Alito, forced an unreasonable reading on the law, and tossed aside long-standing precedents to rule in favor of an Alabama employer that had underpaid a female employee for years. The ruling is the latest indication that a court which once proudly stood up for the disadvantaged is increasingly protective of the powerful."
