Trump v. AndersonThe Supreme Court's ruling in Trump v. Anderson reinforces the principle that Congress holds the authority to enforce disqualifications under Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment, thereby upholding the separation of powers. This decision aligns with the founding principles of limited government and checks and balances, ensuring that states cannot unilaterally impose disqualifications on federal candidates.

Arellano v. McDonoughThe Supreme Court's decision in Arellano v. McDonough reinforces the principle that statutory text and structure dictate the application of benefits, emphasizing Congress's authority to set limitations on retroactive benefits. The ruling aligns with the Constitution's separation of powers by respecting legislative intent and the role of the judiciary in interpreting statutes without imposing equitable tolling where it was not intended.
