Supreme Court Issues 6-3 Emergency Ruling Allowing President Trump to Remove Three Members of Consumer Product Safety Commission

The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday cleared the way for President Donald Trump to remove three members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), handing the administration a swift legal victory in its effort to assert greater executive control over independent agencies. The emergency order overrides a lower court ruling that had blocked the firings and ordered the reinstatement of Commissioners Mary Boyle, Alexander Hoehn-Saric, and Richard Trumka Jr. while litigation continues.
