Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch on Thursday reaffirmed his role as the ardent defender of Native American rights on the nine-member bench, writing dozens of pages in a pair of opinions about why"Tribes enjoy a unique status in our law."
In a separate 8-1 opinion authored by Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, Gorsuch broke from the liberal justice's majority ruling that said the U.S. Bankruptcy Code overrides the immunity of all governments,"including the federally recognized Indian tribes.""Tribes enjoy a unique status in our law.
Several legal scholars also took to Twitter to recognize the justice's commitment to Native American sovereignty.
