Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, the Supreme Court's most recent appointee, expressed concerns Tuesday about the judiciary becoming a"super legislature" in a key case centering on reining in the administrative state.
Jackson's concerns on Tuesday did not appear to be anomalous from the rest of the 6-3 Republican-appointed majority. In fact, the three liberal appointees on the high court along with three conservative justices appeared skeptical about the claims as well. Former Trump administration solicitor general Noel Francisco was arguing on behalf of the plaintiffs and fixated on a supposed need for Congress to specify a clear amount the CFPB should receive in funding in order for it to be constitutional.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren , who is credited with helping create the bureau following the 2008 financial crisis, said the potential implications of a "bad ruling" by the high court could have far-reaching consequences for other agencies and welfare programs that are similarly funded.
