Justice Alito Recuses From Major Climate Case in Reversal

Original: In reversal, Justice Samuel Alito steps aside from major climate case

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has withdrawn from a major climate-related case after previously indicating he would take part. The reversal puts the court's handling of the dispute in the spotlight, as his participation could have influenced the outcome. Observers are watching to see how the remaining justices rule and what the decision means for climate regulation in the United States.

Why now: A sitting Supreme Court justice reversing course on a high-stakes climate case is unusual and carries legal and political significance.
