A MUST READ by the LPE Project’s own brilliant K. Sabeel Rahman on reclaiming a vision of administrative state capable of getting us to an equitable, inclusive, and sustainable economy in the wake of the Supreme Court’s unprecedented power grab! lpeproject.org/blog/after-che…

SCOTUS' recent string of decisions undermining the administrative state represents a "troubling new form of democracy nullification." In this week's #FiresideStacks🔥, K. Sabeel Rahman urges Congress to quickly restabilize agency policymaking authorities: firesidestacks.com/p/the-roberts-…
