Congress gave that single man the authority to do so.
The reality I was referring to was the reality of Congress having delegated this authority to the Executive Branch. Read the dissent if you haven't.
The delegation of authority happened in 2003. It was broad. The delegated authority had been exercised before.
The current Court is just hell-bent on dismantling the ability of the Executive Branch to regulate based on delegated authority.
It wasn't this broad.
> The delegated authority had been exercised before.
Never this broadly.
The reality is that this was a huge overstep by the administration. The majority is correct.
The reality is that this court is increasingly corrupt and going over their authority. And they should be reigned in.
I would have enjoyed watching Scalia try to come up with a rationale for voting with this majority. He might have even voted with the minority.
The department of education was given the authority to grant and alter loans for the purpose of issuing loans. Does that actually mean they have the authority to declare "psych" to Congress and do the opposite? Perhaps, but I lean with the majority here.
Congress should get of its butt and do it the right way.
