Landor v. Louisiana Dept of Corrections and Public Safety · ¶89

The product is, of course, federal law like any other—enacted via bicameralism and presentment, and constituting “the supreme Law of the Land.” U. S. Const., Art. VI, cl. 2; see Armstrong v. Exceptional Child Center, Inc., 575 U. S. 320, 324 (2015); Health and Hospital Corporation of Marion Cty. v. Talevski, 599 U. S. 166, 171–172 (2023). And such law may further not only Congress’s other enumerated powers but also ends otherwise beyond Congress’s reach. See United States v. Butler, 297 U. S. 1, 66 (1936).
