Learning Resources, Inc. v. Trump · ¶254

The principal opinion bases its decision on the major questions doctrine. Ante, at 242–248 (opinion of Roberts, C. J.). In some cases, the Court has used the major questions doctrine as a canon of statutory interpretation because delegations of major powers are unlikely to be subtle. See, e. g., Whitman, 531 U. S., at 468; see ante, at 243 (opinion of Roberts, C. J.); see also Biden v. Nebraska, 600 U. S. 477, 501– 503 (2023). In other cases, the Court has used it to avoid what would have been originally understood as an unconstitutional delegation of legislative power. See, e. g., West Vir ginia v. EPA, 597 U. S. 697, 723 (2022); ante, at 243 (opinion of Roberts, C. J.). In today's cases, neither the statutory text nor the Constitution provide a basis for ruling against the President. I respectfully dissent.
