A conservative think tank bankrolled by Leonard Leo , the dark money master who assembled the Supreme Court’s conservative supermajority.

The petitioners in the case are Consumers’ Research and By Two L.P., an “educational consulting” company in Texas with little public footprint.

The case is part of a broader effort by conservatives to end the independence of regulatory agencies.

Trending Consumers’ Research and By Two have received backing from 16 Republican attorneys general.

The legal team is made up of high-powered lawyers from Jones Day , including former Trump White House Counsel Don McGahn .

Leo ’s dark money network has long been the top financier of the Republican Attorneys General Association , which helps elect GOP law enforcement chiefs.
