The Supreme Court ruled on Monday that the city of Boston, Mass. was in violation of the First Amendment when it declined to fly the flag of a Christian group outside of City Hall, while being perfectly amenable to flying the flags of other outside groups. The decision was unanimous.

The decision for Shurtleff v City of Boston was penned by Justice Breyer, who resigned earlier this year but still sits on the bench pending the swearing in of Biden's approved nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson.
