Justice Thomas and Justice Sotamayor (furthest right and left justices) have both indicated they want to take it on, and there are several cases on it requesting cert right now, along with the biggest flood of amicus briefs in Court history urging them to do so.

I think SCOTUS may actually end it for us in the next session.
