#SCOTUS has ruled #Congress cannot limit the president’s #power to fire agencies led by a single official. The question before the court today is if it can insulate members of multi-member commissions from removal.

In 2020, in ruling Congress could not limit the president’s power to fire the head of the #CFPB, CJ #JohnRoberts wrote the ruling “does not foreclose Congress from pursuing alternative responses to the problem—for example, converting the CFPB into a multimember agency.”
