Kelly Slaughter and Alvaro Bedoya are asking courts to follow 90 years of Supreme Court precedent and reinstate them.

The two Democratic FTC commissioners have filed a lawsuit against the president and newly appointed Republican FTC chair Andrew Ferguson .

They argue that without finding “inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office” they have a right to remain in office for the remainder of their seven-year term.
