Conclusion

Thank you for playing “The Fight Against Warrantless Wiretapping.” We hope you have enjoyed the simulation, but specifically, we hope you now feel more comfortable at:

  • describing how, and on what terms, cases come to be heard in the federal judicial system and in the US Supreme Court;
  • identifying and explaining the significance of several historic US Supreme Court cases, including civil liberties-related cases in particular; and
  • articulating the role played by the courts in the policy-making process.
 

From here, your instructor may encourage you to take a brief quiz. We also hope you will continue to learn more about the judiciary, civil liberties, and the US Supreme Court—including audio recordings of oral arguments and copies of written briefs.

You may now close this activity.
