Kethledge Is Best Choice to Curtail the Administrative State

The Trump administration has made a priority of shrinking the administrative state.  A recent study authored by the New Civil Liberties Alliance (NCLA), which is headed by the prominent constitutional-law scholar Philip Hamburger, concludes that “If President Trump wishes to appoint another justice who would respect the Constitution and shrink the administrative state, he would have a hard time—perhaps an impossible time—finding a better choice than Judge Ray Kethledge.”

Philip Hamburger is the nation's leading scholar on rolling back the administrative state.  He literally wrote the book on the subject, authoring the seminal treatise Is Administrative Law Unlawful?  Professor Hamburger understands perhaps better than any other scholar the need to restore the proper balance between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches.
