Executive Power After 'Slaughter'

The overturning of Humphrey's makes the administrative state more directly accountable to voters through the President, rather than a "headless fourth branch." At the same time, giving its consolidated power to one person might prove just as dangerous. Joseph Postell, the Allison and Dorothy Rouse chair in Politics at Hillsdale College, joins this episode of Civitas Conversations to discuss executive authority after Trump v. Slaughter. Civitas Conversations features leading scholars, commentators, and thought leaders for in-depth discussions of the latest essays in Civitas Outlook—and the ideas behind them. A production of the Civitas Institute at the University of Texas at Austin.
