Description | Chief Justice John Roberts pledged during his Supreme Court hearings to be a mere umpire of the law.
But as a legacy-defining decision nears, Roberts is emerging as the court’s most intriguing player.
Justices are expected to rule Thursday — during their final public sitting of the term — on the fate of President Barack Obama’s signature health law. While much of the early attention focused on swing-vote Justice Anthony Kennedy, many court watchers predict Roberts will be the architect of the ruling.
To a great extent, the decision will shape the way history views Roberts’s stewardship of the high court. |
