Based on the title, I was assuming this was going to be about plea bargains and overbooked courts which more seriously undermine the public's right to due process imo. This is a complicated issue but there are significant tradeoffs involved here. Intuitively, my assumption is that the effect of this action would be to kneecap regulatory agencies. This is not a legal opinion but jury trials are an enormous burden on the public and I don't think that it's unreasonable to try to avoid jury trials for many enforcement actions. I'm sure those who know the constitution and the law better than me can argue both sides of the issue, but cynically this seems part and parcel with the right wing efforts to dismantle the administrative state. While I have concerns about an overly powerful government, I am more concerned with unrestrained market forces.
