Description

Could a grandma go to prison for urging her grandson to overstay his visa?

The Trump administration says that hypothetical is far-fetched, but it'll be on the justices' minds this week as they take on a law that punishes encouraging illegal immigration at oral argument Feb. 25.

It's just one of the disputes up for argument at the U.S. Supreme Court over the next few days, and "Cases and Controversies" hosts Kimberly Robinson and Jordan Rubin are here to get you up to speed on all of them, including an environmental case involving a multi-billion-dollar pipeline, prisoner litigation claims, and the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act in a terrorism case.

Hosts: Kimberly Robinson and Jordan Rubin.
