Oct. 19, 2023, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government Research Foundation President Rick Manning today issued the following statement after joining an amicus curiae brief in SEC v. Jarkesy:
“Americans for Limited Government Research Foundation is proud to join Advancing American Freedom and many others in filing an amicus brief on SEC v. Jarkesy. The administrative state has too often become prosecutor, judge and jury in determining the guilt or innocence of those accused of violating regulations. The Constitutional separation of powers was created to provide checks against this consolidation of power. Mr. Jarkesy has been abused by a system devised under the guise of expertise, but which is really nothing more than a consolidation of power within the executive branch which does not extend guaranteed legal protections to the accused. It is time for the Supreme Court to end this fixed, quasi-legal system.”
