To: Justices Court
From: A constituent in Willoughby, OH

The Supreme Court's role is to serve as an independent and impartial arbiter of the law, upholding the Constitution and protecting the rights of all citizens, regardless of political affiliation or agenda. The recent trend of the Court consistently ruling in favor of the previous administration's legally dubious actions without providing substantive reasoning is concerning and undermines public trust in the judiciary's neutrality. It is crucial that the Court objectively reviews each case on its merits, faithfully interpreting the law rather than appearing to capitulate to any particular ideology or individual. A Supreme Court that is perceived as beholden to partisan interests cannot properly fulfill its vital function as a check on the other branches of government and a guardian of our democratic system. The Court must reassert its independence and recommit itself to principled jurisprudence in order to preserve its legitimacy and credibility as the nation's highest judicial authority. Transparent, well-reasoned opinions that adhere to the text and spirit of the Constitution are essential to restoring faith in the impartiality of the federal judiciary.
