Greenhouse effect (United States Supreme Court)

The Greenhouse effect is a theory of U.S. Supreme Court justices' behavior that postulates a tendency of conservative Supreme Court Justices to vote with the liberals more often as their careers progress, due to a desire for favorable press coverage. The idea was first proposed by Hoover Institution economist Thomas Sowell and popularized by D.C. Court of Appeals Senior Judge Laurence Silberman in a speech to The Federalist Society in 1992.
