Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : The justices will consider whether a school board's censure of one of its members over his speech violates the First Amendment.

46% : The court's nine justices will decide on a range of cases, which cover polarizing topics like abortion, religion, and gun rights.

42% : The Supreme Court agreed in July to hear a major case from Maine on whether students can use state aid to attend schools that provide religious or "sectarian" instruction, reviewing a Christian school that has been banned from an education program.
