The justices will meet Friday for a private conference to consider which, if any, cases should be added to the court’s docket. Among the petitions slated to be discussed are a pair of consolidated cases on the legality of Medicaid work requirements, a challenge to a Kansas law that requires applicants to prove U.S. citizenship when registering to vote, and a lawsuit against President Donald Trump alleging that he violated the First Amendment when he blocked critics on Twitter. A full list of the petitions we’re watching is here. Orders from the private conference are expected later on Friday or on Monday.
