"Supreme Court Case Raises Concerns Over Ties to Oil Baron and Regulatory Power"
TL;DR Summary
A government watchdog has called for Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch to recuse himself from an upcoming case due to his close ties to billionaire oil baron Philip Anschutz, who stands to benefit from the ruling. The case, Loper Bright Enterprises v Raimondo, could have wide-ranging implications on federal health and environmental regulation by potentially removing the Chevron deference principle. Gorsuch's past connections to Anschutz, including being recommended for a court of appeals position by the billionaire, have raised concerns about conflicts of interest and the integrity of the Supreme Court.
