Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the ranking member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs, issued a statement criticizing a Supreme Court ruling that she said allows President Donald Trump to remove Democratic appointees and take control of formerly independent agencies. Warren said the ruling lets Trump direct those agencies to serve him and wealthy allies rather than the public. She called on Senate Republicans to oppose what she described as a power grab and said Democrats would keep fighting to make those agencies work better for families.
