The 7 big Supreme Court cases to watch in 2020
By John Kruzel and Harper Neidig - 01/01/20 05:01 PM EST
The Supreme Court will hear a slate of highly charged disputes when the justices return to the bench in the new year and resume one of the most politically volatile terms in recent memory.
Since the term opened in October the court has heard high-profile fights over LGBT rights in the workplace, the scope of the Second Amendment and the deportation status of nearly 700,000 young undocumented immigrants.
The remaining cases on the court’s docket are no less explosive.

They will be asked to draw new lines between church and state. And for the first time since Trump’s two nominees joined the court, the justices will hear a case on abortion.
