What happened: The US Supreme Court appeared sympathetic to a crisis pregnancy centre's challenge against a New Jersey subpoena demanding donor records. The centre argues it should contest the subpoena in federal court.
Why it matters:
- The case could affect legal protections for donor privacy in politically sensitive contexts.
- It involves the balance of state authority and free speech rights for advocacy groups.
MNN Take: The Supreme Court's reaction suggests it may limit state power to access donor information from certain organisations, highlighting ongoing debates over privacy and state investigations.
