FILE - A padlock and chain are fixed to a gate leading to New Rochelle High School that is closed due to COVID-19 concerns, March 13, 2020, in New Rochelle, N.Y. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch called emergency measures taken during the COVID-19 crisis that killed more than 1 million Americans perhaps “the greatest intrusions on civil liberties in the peacetime history of this country.” Gorsuch pointed to orders closing schools, restricting church services, mandating vaccines and prohibiting evictions in a broadside aimed at local, state and federal officials, even his colleagues.
