Though he was transferred to the general population in 2022, Hope said his time in the cell took a major toll on his health. The inmate claimed he has suffered from anxiety, depression, hallucinations and suicidal thoughts. </p> <p>Hope argued that his years in solitary confinement amounted to “cruel and unusual punishment,” which is banned under the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. A Texas federal judge dismissed the suit in 2020, ruling the inmate’s allegations did not “rise to the level of a violation of the Eighth Amendment.” The New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals supported the decision in 2021, which prompted Hope to file an appeal with the Supreme Court last year.</p> <section class="suitcase-ad" /> <p>SCOTUS, which has considerable discretion in deciding which cases it’ll hear, has not explained why he chose to reject Hope’s appeal.</p> <p>“The idea of putting prisoners in solitary confinement for decades on end would have been anathema to the Founders, and we believe that the Supreme Court must someday take up a case to make that clear,” said Hope’s attorney, Easha Anand.</p> </div> <p><br /> <br /><a href="https://www.complex.com/life/supreme-court-rejects-case-texas-inmate-spent-27-years-solitary-confinement">Source link </a></p> <p> <a rel="follow" href="http://megatheme.ir/" title="قالب وردپرس">قالب وردپرس</a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://freshestfm.com/scotus-rejects-appeal-from-inmate-who-spent-years-in-solitary-confinement/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Supreme Court Will Not Block $6 Billion Student Loan Debt Settlement</title> <link>https://freshestfm.com/supreme-court-will-not-block-6-billion-student-loan-debt-settlement/</link> <comments>https://freshestfm.com/supreme-court-will-not-block-6-billion-student-loan-debt-settlement/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[SOURCE]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Fri, 14 Apr 2023 10:42:13 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[college]]></category> <category><![CDATA[court]]></category> <category><![CDATA[debt]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-politics]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-politics-social]]></category> <category><![CDATA[education]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Featured]]></category> <category><![CDATA[law]]></category> <category><![CDATA[money]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[student-loans]]></category> <category><![CDATA[supreme-court]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://freshestfm.com/supreme-court-will-not-block-6-billion-student-loan-debt-settlement/</guid> <description><![CDATA[The Supreme Court has declined to block a $6 billion student loan debt settlement involving for-profit schools and vocational institutions accused of misconduct.

About 59 percent of voters rejected a proposed amendment that would’ve reversed a 2019 Kansas Supreme Court ruling that determined Kansans have the right to terminate a pregnancy. The new vote marks the first abortion referendum in the United States since the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.complex.com/life/supreme-court-overturns-roe-v-wade" rel="noopener">overturning of <em>Roe v. Wade</em></a> back in June.</p> <p>“Voters in Kansas turned out in record numbers to reject extreme efforts to amend the state constitution to take away a woman’s right to choose and open the door for a state-wide ban,” President Joe Biden said in a<a target="_blank" href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/08/02/statement-by-president-joe-biden-on-defeat-of-kansas-ballot-measure-threatening-womens-right-to-abortion/" rel="noopener"> statement</a>. “This vote makes clear what we know: the majority of Americans agree that women should have access to abortion and should have the right to make their own health care decisions. Congress should listen to the will of the American people and restore the protections of Roe as federal law.”</p> <p>Kansas law permits abortions up until 22 weeks of pregnancy.</p> <p>The vote to uphold abortion access came as a surprise to many, as Kansas is a deeply red state with a GOP-controlled legislature. However, a <a title="" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" href="https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2022/07/06/majority-of-public-disapproves-of-supreme-courts-decision-to-overturn-roe-v-wade/">Pew Research Center survey</a> published in July showed the majority of Americans are opposed to outright abortion bans, while 62 percent disapproved of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn <em>Roe v. Wade.</em></p> <section class="suitcase-ad" /> <p>The SCOTUS ruling gave U.S. states license to outlaw abortion, effectively squashing a decades-old precedent that granted the federal right to the procedure. Experts believe the Kansas vote indicates abortion will be a winning issue for Democrats in the upcoming primaries, which Republicans are expected to dominate.</p> <p>“Kansans stood up for fundamental rights today,” Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly tweeted. “We rejected divisive legislation that jeopardized our economic future & put women’s health care access at risk. Together, we’ll continue to make incredible strides to make KS the best state in the nation to live freely & do business.”</p> </div> <p><br /> <br /><a href="https://www.complex.com/life/kansas-voted-to-protect-abortion-rights-in-state-constitution">Source link </a></p> <p> <a rel="follow" href="http://megatheme.ir/" title="قالب وردپرس">قالب وردپرس</a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://freshestfm.com/kansas-voted-to-protect-abortion-rights-in-state-constitution/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Jim Harbaugh Will Raise Baby If Michigan Players Have Unplanned Pregnancy</title> <link>https://freshestfm.com/jim-harbaugh-will-raise-baby-if-michigan-players-have-unplanned-pregnancy/</link> <comments>https://freshestfm.com/jim-harbaugh-will-raise-baby-if-michigan-players-have-unplanned-pregnancy/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[SOURCE]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Tue, 26 Jul 2022 21:41:05 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[abortion]]></category> <category><![CDATA[babies]]></category> <category><![CDATA[coach]]></category> <category><![CDATA[college-football]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-sports]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-sports-other]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Featured]]></category> <category><![CDATA[football]]></category> <category><![CDATA[human-rights]]></category> <category><![CDATA[jim-harbaugh]]></category> <category><![CDATA[michigan]]></category> <category><![CDATA[michigan-wolverines]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[ncaa-football]]></category> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Pregnancies]]></category> <category><![CDATA[roe-v-wade]]></category> <category><![CDATA[supreme-court]]></category> <category><![CDATA[tier-one]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://freshestfm.com/jim-harbaugh-will-raise-baby-if-michigan-players-have-unplanned-pregnancy/</guid> <description><![CDATA[Wolverines football coach Jim Harbaugh reiterated his stance on abortion rights last week during an anti-choice fundraising event that took place in Plymouth, Michigan. “I believe in having the courage to let the unborn be born,” Harbaugh said at the Plymouth Right to Life event, per ESPN. “I love life.

Let that unborn child be born, and if at that time, you don’t feel like you can care for it, you don’t have the means or the wherewithal, then Sarah and I will take that baby.”</p> <p>Harbaugh added, “Any player on our team, any female staff member or any staff member or anybody in our family or our extended family…that doesn’t feel like after they have a baby they can take care of it, we got a big house. We’ll raise that baby.”</p> <section class="suitcase-ad" /> <p>The Michigan coach went on to say he respects different viewpoints when it comes to abortion rights but that abortion is a direly serious subject.</p> <p>“It’s a life-or-death type of issue,” he shared. “And I believe in, and I respect, people’s views. But let’s hear them. Let’s discuss them because there’s passion on both sides of this issue.

Wade in a statement shared to social media on Friday. Per Obama, the Supreme Court had “not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent” but also “relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues.”</p> <p>When responding to Obama’s statement on Twitter, Sen. John Cornyn of <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/texas" rel="noopener">Texas</a> said “Now do Plessy vs Ferguson/Brown vs Board of Education.” The Supreme Court’s Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka decision saw the court <a target="_blank" href="https://www.supremecourt.gov/publicinfo/speeches/viewspeech/sp_05-17-04b" rel="noopener">ruling</a> in 1954 that state-level laws on public school segregation were unconstitutional. The move, notably, marked a partial overruling from the court of its 1896 Plessy v. Ferguson decision.</p> <p>Cornyn’s comment was widely criticized on Saturday, with the Texas Republican being called out as “racist” and “an [irredeemable] piece of shite.” See more of the ensuing discourse below.</p> <p>Shortly after sharing the original tweet, Cornyn issued a follow-up in which he added, “Thank goodness some SCOTUS precedents are overruled.”</p> <p>On Friday, the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, enabling abortion bans in a number of states. Addressing this attack on reproductive rights, <a target="_blank" href="http://complex.com/tag/joe-biden" rel="noopener">President Biden</a> cautioned in remarks delivered from Cross Hall that the “health and life of women in this nation are now at risk.”</p> <p>For info on how to donate to the National Network of Abortion Funds’ Crisis Relief Fund, <a target="_blank" href="https://donate.abortionfunds.org/give/387742/#!/donation/checkout?c_src=springsocial" rel="noopener">hit this link</a>.</p> </div> <p><br /> <br /><a href="https://www.complex.com/life/texas-republican-slammed-for-mention-of-racial-segregation-ruling-in-response-to-supreme-court-abortion-decision/">Source link </a></p> <p> <a rel="follow" href="http://megatheme.ir/" title="قالب وردپرس">قالب وردپرس</a></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://freshestfm.com/texas-republican-slammed-for-mention-of-racial-segregation-ruling/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Lizzo Teams Up With Live Nation to Donate $1 million to Planned Parenthood</title> <link>https://freshestfm.com/lizzo-teams-up-with-live-nation-to-donate-1-million-to-planned-parenthood/</link> <comments>https://freshestfm.com/lizzo-teams-up-with-live-nation-to-donate-1-million-to-planned-parenthood/#respond</comments> <dc:creator><![CDATA[SOURCE]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Sat, 25 Jun 2022 03:41:56 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[abortion]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[dfp-music-other]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Featured]]></category> <category><![CDATA[live-nation]]></category> <category><![CDATA[lizzo]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Music]]></category> <category><![CDATA[News]]></category> <category><![CDATA[planned-parenthood]]></category> <category><![CDATA[supreme-court]]></category> <category><![CDATA[tier-one]]></category> <category><![CDATA[tour]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">https://freshestfm.com/lizzo-teams-up-with-live-nation-to-donate-1-million-to-planned-parenthood/</guid> <description><![CDATA[Hours after the Supreme Court ruled to overturn Roe v.
