It's so narrow that it's out of context. The APA does say "all matters of law" but it's in a longer sentence that makes it clear they mean a legal dispute. Robe

It's so narrow that it's out of context. The APA does say "all matters of law" but it's in a longer sentence that makes it clear they mean a legal dispute. Roberts et al cram a huge shift of plenary powers through that pinhole. Regardless of what you think about the administrative state, no one can say with a straight face courts will do a good job of this. We don't even have enough judges to manage immigration and family law cases, and now we need people who are legal experts _and_ subject matter experts in all regulatory cases that come before them? I mean, we'll see what courts think after environmental rights groups file thousands of suits (as the majority seems to think they should be doing) after this.
Or I mean, a different outcome is that we get EPA court. Article III is very short and doesn't design the federal judiciary. Biden could pretty easily just make the EPA a court with lifetime appointments. What an own goal that would be haha.
