SCOTUS WEEK: No Rights To Water? Court Makes Major Ruling You Might Have Missed | The Left Wing 10.2
from The Left Wing · host The Left Wing
The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled against the Navajo Nation over claims that the federal government has failed to assert the tribe's desperate need for water access in the arid West. The justices, divided 5-4, said a lawsuit the tribe filed against the federal government must be thrown out. Writing for the majority, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said that an 1868 treaty with the Navajo Nation did not require the U.S. government to take active steps to secure water access. ******* We discuss the Supreme Court's ruling, the Indian child welfare act & how these two cases are linked ******* Related article: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/supreme-court-rules-navajo-nation-water-rights-dispute-rcna83584 *** The video of the episode is attached for all Spotify users *** Follow - The Left Wing: YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@TheLeftWingPod Follow - Counterpoint Politics: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/counterpoint_politics/ Follow - Cocktails & Capitalism: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/cocktailsandcapitalism/ Follow - Independent Thought: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/independentthought/?hl=en
