JUSTICE JACKSON, dissenting. “[T]here is no right to practice medicine which is not subordinate to the police power of the States.” Lambert v. Yellowley, 272 U. S. 581, 596 (1926).

I'm not going to break down the majority opinion in Chiles v. Salazar, because it's only going to make me mad. However, I am reading through Justice Jackson's dissent, and I'll share relevent portions here.

Hell yes! The caregiving crisis in this country is so real. Whether you’re caring for a child, a parent, or a sick loved one, there is virtually no support - financial or otherwise. The more people in office who support caregivers, the better. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/03/17/n...
