The Supreme Court's rejection to hear a challenge against the Consumer Product Safety Commission's structure upholds a 90-year precedent of independent agency protections.
Consumers' Research contested the CPSC's denial of FOIA requests and claimed that its insulated structure violates constitutional limits on presidential oversight, asserting agency overreach.
The Fifth Circuit Court upheld that the CPSC's independence does not undermine its executive authority, invoking a historic Supreme Court ruling to support its stance.
The ongoing conflict around the administrative state reflects a broader narrative of judicial and legislative power dynamics as various entities contest regulatory authority.
