The thing about taking statutory interpretation away from the agencies is that Congress actually has power over those agencies, but does not have power over the Court. It’s power grab in the guise of helping; it’s “helping” in a paternalistic, condescending, unchecked manner.

This is again, a crisis brought on by the functional collapse of impeachment as an enforcement mechanism.

Seems to me that Congress has the same control over a court's interpretation of a statute as it does over an administrative agencies, at least barring constitutional issues. Congress can pass laws amending statutes, reversing court interpretations of statutes, and so on.

this has been driving me crazy about the court's jurisprudence here, congress is fully capable of telling the agencies what to do and uses that power often, it doesn't need to be saved by the courts

It takes a lot of labor and expertise that Congress simply doesn’t have to transform legislation into workable policy. Once upon a time I was involved in this process and I just can’t get my head around the absurd implications of this ruling.

Conservatives always want power in the part of government they control. When Dems control the federal government, Rs yell “states’ rights.” Now that the radical right control SCOTUS, the courts are the arbiters of everything.

It's also a power grab in that we will now need more courts. Also, the ruling that administrative law judges are unconstitutional means more courts. Two rulings in one week that explicitly expand the court system. Jokes on them; GOP Congress will forego regulation over funding courts.

Congress does have power over the courts though. They have as much power in the checks and balances sense over the judiciary as they do over the executive. They can cut the judiciary’s budget. They can investigate the judiciary. The issue is that Congress refuses to use that power.

We are entering the cool zone of an era where people think the court is bias and therefore illegitimate. No one is going to follow laws that they believe are wrong and will break them. We had a war over it when it came to owning people
