The Supreme Court released its final decisions of the current session Monday morning, announcing it will hear the President Trump travel ban cases from the bench this fall.

The court also said it will take on the case of a baker in Colorado who refused to bake a cake for a same-sex couple, on the grounds that it would violate his religious beliefs.

Here & Now‘s Robin Young talks with Emily Bazelon (@emilybazelon), staff writer at the New York Times Magazine and a fellow at Yale Law School, about the decisions and this session.
