Supreme Court weighs federal agencies’ power to impose fines

A case before the U.S. Supreme Court concerns federal agencies’ power to impose fines.

The court is grappling with arguments about that authority.

The case comes as the court’s conservative majority has pared back regulators’ power.

But some conservative justices appeared skeptical of going further.

The dispute matters because it concerns how much power federal regulators have to enforce rules through fines.

The available information does not say when the court will decide the case or what it may do next.
