Justice Gorsuch’s Slaughter Opinion is a Direct Threat to Congress
Justice Gorsuch's concurrence in Slaughter v. Trump warns that allowing presidents to fire independent agency heads concentrates power dangerously, urging the Court to scrutinize congressional actions to address this. The Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling affirmed presidential authority to remove agency leaders, contradicting Congress's prior assumption of agency independence. The article argues Congress must assert its authority to regulate bureaucracy despite the decision.
