The court concluded that ERISA § 502(a)(2) permits plan participants to bring representative actions for fiduciary breaches, and the waiver's prohibition on such actions renders it unenforceable.

• Jaciel Rojas v. Samuel Olson, et al (No. 25-03127; filed 2026-07-30) — The Seventh Circuit reversed a district court's denial of habeas corpus relief and held that an alien present in the United States without inspection is not "seeking admission" within immigration detention law and therefore is eligible for bond hearings under Section 1226. The court rejected the government's interpretation that would subject such aliens to mandatory detention under Section 1225.
• In plain terms Aliens present in the interior of the U.S. without formal admission are not subject to mandatory detention and are eligible for bond hearings.

United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit

• USA v. Michael Davis (No. 25-05307; filed 2026-07-30) — The Sixth Circuit affirmed Davis's convictions for attempted possession of cocaine with intent to distribute and unlawful possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, both arising from a controlled drug transaction. The court found the district court did not plainly err in admitting evidence of prior uncharged drug transactions as background evidence or in issuing limiting instructions when evidence groups were admitted rather than with each individual exhibit.
• In plain terms Convictions for attempted cocaine distribution and illegal firearm possession by a felon were upheld.

Roll-call votes the chambers themselves record on 2026-07-30, in vote-number order. Every recorded vote in the window is listed: selection is by existence, not by importance, and no rule here prefers one question over another. Tallies and member positions come from the chamber's own published vote record, captured and hashed like every other source. This is the chambers' vote record itself; section 1.3 lists the Congressional Record granules in which votes were printed.

No recorded votes dated this day were observed.

Selection rules, summarization prompts, and thresholds are versioned in this repository and identified by the pipeline version in the header (d769415). Editorial principles — primary sources only, opinion-agnostic prose, mechanical party-blind selection, full coverage accounting — are defined in GUIDE.md §2. Ruleset in effect: prompt version 1; plain-language version 1. To reproduce this digest: re-run the report stage against the extracted records for 2026-07-30; no upstream re-fetch is required (GUIDE.md §5).

"In plain terms" lines are model-generated restatements of the stored summaries, derived only from the summary text shown beside them; items without one had no usable restatement. ALL-CAPS source headings are case-normalized for display; original casing is preserved at the source link. Term definitions above are static, repo-versioned prose.
