"Supreme Court's Pivotal Cases: Limiting Federal Administrative Power"

New England fishermen are taking their fight against a costly at-sea monitoring mandate to the Supreme Court, arguing that it violates the Constitution and the Magnuson-Stevens Act. They claim that the requirement, which charges them $700 a day per boat, is burdensome and unnecessary, as existing systems already monitor compliance. The outcome of the case could have significant implications for the administrative state and the fishing industry's livelihoods, with potential environmental repercussions if U.S. fishermen are put out of business and the country relies more on imported seafood.
