At issue is whether Lorie Smith, a Colorado Christian web designer, and her company, 303 Creative LLC, are required to provide wedding website design services to same-sex couples

In 2018, the Supreme Court sidestepped a similar question about Jack Phillips, a Colorado baker who refused to make a wedding cake for a gay couple.

It is a safe bet that the Court, with a six-justice conservative majority largely appointed by former President Donald Trump, will side with Smith. As the Supreme Court overreaches and uses the judicial system to remove equal protections, the institution itself is in dire need of reform and accountability.

In order to help restore trust, Congress should conduct its own investigation into these issues as well as pass long overdue legislation creating a code of ethics for the Supreme Court.
