Supreme Court ruling and pending case test executive power
A reported 6–3 Supreme Court ruling allows the president to remove leaders of most independent agencies at will; practical effects and application by agencies and lower courts remain uncertain. Separately, the administration is seeking to limit nationwide court relief under the APA in a surprise-billing-rule case, but the Court has not agreed to hear it. The pending case is distinct from the removal ruling and has produced no decision.
