Driving the news: The high court voted 8-1 in favor of Starbucks in a case the company filed against the National Labor Relations Board involving the so-called Memphis 7, a group of unionizing workers who said they were unlawfully fired after they appeared in a TV news segment.

• Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, who's effectively become the court's lone labor supporter, wrote the dissent.

• The decision will make it harder for the NLRB, the agency that administers the national labor law, to go after employers for violating its rules.
