Voting rights and affirmative action top Jackson's Supreme Court docket

As the Supreme Court comes to recess after a groundbreaking term, newly sworn-in Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson will face a litany of major cases when the high court returns in the fall.

Jackson, who made history as the first black woman to ascend to the Supreme Court, was sworn in Thursday afternoon during a small ceremony following the retirement ceremony of Justice Stephen Breyer after his nearly 28-year tenure on the bench. She'll bring a unique perspective to the high court as a former public defender and past vice chairwoman of the U.S. Sentencing Commission.

When the Supreme Court resumes in October, Jackson's presence will not alter the ideological 6-3 conservative majority, though the court will now have four members who have joined in only the past five years.

Jackson's first term will be marked by several major disputes, including voting rights, affirmative action in college admissions, and finding a balance between religious liberty and gay rights.

Here are some of the cases the court will hear when the term begins in October.

Jackson has a "docket?"  So rather than pack the SCOTUS with more liberals, the Court is reduced to one Justice now?
