Today, the Supreme Court decided to not take a case on the Bush Administration's warrrantless wiretapping program. The suit was brought to the court by the American Civil Liberties Union. The Supreme Court offered no explanation for the rejection. This is a blow to civil liberties advocates who are challenging the constitutionality of the Administration's domestic surveillance programs.
Meanwhile, the High Court heard the first of two cases scheduled this week on workplace discrimination. As FSRN's Leigh Ann Caldwell reports, today's case deals with age discrimination, tomorrow's case covers race.
