Justice Alito says ‘no provision’ in Constitution allows Congress to regulate Supreme Court

in news •  last year 

"Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito said Congress has no "authority" to regulate the high court, becoming the first justice to publicly speak out against Democratic lawmakers’ attempts to impose a code of ethics on the court.

Alito made the comments during an interview to the Wall Street Journal opinion pages, which was published Friday after Democrats pushed Supreme Court ethics legislation through a Senate committee.

"I know this is a controversial view, but I’m willing to say it. No provision in the Constitution gives them the authority to regulate the Supreme Court—period," Alito said of Congress."
