Supreme Court will hear challenge to Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

Could be a big case that challenges the modern practice of consigning legislative power to bureaus, executive departments, etc.

That article made my head spin. Can you explain this in common dishwasher parlance?

At this time, the members of the CFPB (among others) are essentially unelected legislators. Their ability to create and enforce financial regulations and laws (which is the bureau's central function) is being called into question because the constitution designates a separation between legislative and executive powers and the bureau is doing plenty of both.
