6-3 SCOTUS Ruling Ends 1935 Precedent, Gives President Unfettered Firing Power

The Supreme Court’s 6-3 decision in *Slaughter v. Trump* dismantles the 1935 Humphrey’s Executor doctrine, granting the president at-will removal power over independent agency heads.

The decisions reshape constitutional separation-of-powers analysis and raise urgent questions about the future of regulatory independence.
