A Farm's Fight Goes to the Supreme Court

This month’s episode kicks off a three-part series on IJ’s three Supreme Court cases this term—starting with the U.S. Department of Labor v. Sun Valley Orchards. Scott breaks down how the Marino family’s New Jersey farm was forced to fight excessive fines in the Labor Department’s in-house courts, and what Article III of the Constitution has to say about that. He explores what’s at stake for everyday Americans, and why IJ is fighting back.
