Abstract

The relationship between American law and politics is perhaps nowhere more apparent than on Capitol Hill. Given this context, here we first explore Congress’s power to regulate interstate commerce. Next, we turn to Supreme Court decisions on three constitutional issues: (1) congressional membership, (2) privileges and immunities, and (3) the conduct of investigations. We then analyze cases pertaining to Congress’s delegation of power to the president and the executive branch, followed by an examination of the Court’s interpretation of Congress’s taxing and spending power. Finally, we look at the extent to which the Court has overruled congressional legislation over time.
