Supreme Court of the United States

Doe v. Hochul

June 29, 2026

Summary

The Supreme Court denied the petition for a writ of certiorari. Justice Gorsuch, joined by Justices Thomas and Alito, dissented, arguing that the Second Circuit erred by treating a state vaccine mandate as an automatic undue‑hardship defense under Title VII and urging the Court to address the preemption conflict between federal civil‑rights law and state law.
