WEBVTT - Introducing Bloomberg News Now

0:00:00.840 --> 0:00:03.560
<v Speaker 1>News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now, I'm

0:00:03.640 --> 0:00:05.960
<v Speaker 1>Nathan Hager. It is the first day of a new

0:00:06.040 --> 0:00:09.039
<v Speaker 1>term for the Supreme Court, and already the justices have

0:00:09.160 --> 0:00:13.080
<v Speaker 1>made some major moves on abortion rights and electoral law. First,

0:00:13.200 --> 0:00:16.680
<v Speaker 1>the Supreme Court has rebuffed the Biden administration in a

0:00:16.720 --> 0:00:19.880
<v Speaker 1>case out of Texas, favoring the lone Star state in

0:00:19.920 --> 0:00:24.200
<v Speaker 1>a fight over the availability of abortion in hospital emergency rooms.

0:00:24.440 --> 0:00:27.480
<v Speaker 1>The Fifth US Circuit Court of Appeal said Texas's broad

0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:30.640
<v Speaker 1>abortion ban was not bound by a Health and Human

0:00:30.680 --> 0:00:34.640
<v Speaker 1>Services memo that requires hospitals to offer abortions on an

0:00:34.640 --> 0:00:38.640
<v Speaker 1>emergency basis to protect a mother's health. The Biden administration

0:00:38.680 --> 0:00:41.680
<v Speaker 1>had asked the High Court to reconsider that ruling. The

0:00:41.880 --> 0:00:45.000
<v Speaker 1>Justices have also turned away a challenge to President Biden's

0:00:45.000 --> 0:00:49.080
<v Speaker 1>three year old voter registration initiative without comment. They left

0:00:49.080 --> 0:00:51.920
<v Speaker 1>in place a federal trial court order that twenty seven

0:00:52.000 --> 0:00:56.240
<v Speaker 1>Pennsylvania Republican lawmakers lacked the legal standing to sue over

0:00:56.320 --> 0:00:59.760
<v Speaker 1>President Biden's twenty twenty one executive order. And the Supreme

0:00:59.760 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Court has turned away an appeal from x formerly known

0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:07.160
<v Speaker 1>as Twitter, which argued unsuccessfully that the company should not

0:01:07.280 --> 0:01:11.400
<v Speaker 1>have been required to turnover records about former President Trump's

0:01:11.400 --> 0:01:15.720
<v Speaker 1>social media account to special counsel Jack Smith. One other note,

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:18.600
<v Speaker 1>the Supreme Court is also leaving in place a sixty

0:01:18.600 --> 0:01:22.440
<v Speaker 1>five million dollar antitrust judgment against Martin Screlley, the so

0:01:22.520 --> 0:01:26.320
<v Speaker 1>called farmer bro had tried to overturn his punishment over

0:01:26.360 --> 0:01:29.200
<v Speaker 1>a scheme to control the market for the drug dereprim

0:01:29.480 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 1>The Justices turned away that bid without comment. That's news
