Court upholds affirmative action, blocks executive orders
The reduced Supreme Court weighed in on two politically charged cases Thursday. Justices confirmed the constitutionality of a college affirmative action program, but deadlocked on President Obama’s executive action protecting millions of unauthorized immigrants from deportation -- thus nullifying the order. Judy Woodruff talks to Marcia Coyle of The National Law Journal about the day in court.
