The Supreme Court limited the ways in which the EPA could regulate greenhouse gas pollution from power plants, jeopardizing President Biden's goal for an emissions-free power sector by 2035.
And the high court sided with the Biden administration in a case concerning the White House's decision to end the so-called "Remain in Mexico" policy.

Now, Biden will be allowed to end the policy.
This episode: White House correspondent Scott Detrow, national political correspondent Mara Liasson, climate reporter Laura Benshoff, and immigration reporter Joel Rose.
