Demand Action on Supreme Court Reform After FTC Ruling

1 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

The Supreme Court just handed one person unchecked power over agencies that regulate nuclear energy, product safety, and labor relations — and you need to act on Court reform now. The June 29th ruling didn't just fire two FTC commissioners. It obliterated Humphrey's Executor, a 90-year-old unanimous precedent that existed precisely to keep regulators free from political pressure. Justice Sotomayor said it plainly in her dissent: this ruling gives the President "a power unknown even to the English Crown against which the Founders revolted." A six-justice majority just rewrote the constitutional order to serve one man's agenda, and the logic extends to the NLRB, the Merit Systems Protection Board, and the Consumer Product Safety Commission. The only carve-out was the Federal Reserve — everything else is now fair game. This is the moment for Congress to move on structural Court reform. Expansion, term limits, binding ethics rules — pick one and push it. The Court has made clear it will not restrain itself. That leaves you.
