Roosevelt Pushes Constitutional Change Across Parties
President Roosevelt signals a revival of constitutional debate over federal power after the NRA ruling. He hopes to keep the issue nonpartisan though Democrats oppose and Republicans show some support. The ruling leaves the federal government with limited power to address major modern industrial questions.
Roosevelt’s constitutional clash may shape 1936 campaign
The article argues that Supreme Court limits on New Deal powers leave the federal government weak while 48 states act independently. It notes Roosevelt could push liberalization of the Constitution or face a Republican “Stand by the Constitution” slogan. It also highlights Republicans eyeing the Supreme Court, especially Owen J. Roberts, as potential presidential timber.
