Brennan Center Proposes Seven Solutions to Curb Executive Power Abuses, Citing Recent Supreme Court Rulings

The Brennan Center for Justice has published a policy agenda outlining seven solutions to rein in abuses of executive power, emphasizing the need for stronger checks on the presidency. The proposals include ending presidential immunity for crimes, bolstering Congress's role in checking emergency powers, limiting domestic military deployment, protecting Congress's power of the purse, strengthening congressional oversight of the executive branch, reforming war powers, and curbing warrantless government spying on Americans. The report references recent Supreme Court opinions, such as *Trump v. United States* (2024), which it states granted presidents broad immunity from prosecution.
