Benesch’s Transportation & Logistics Co‑Chair Marc Blubaugh, author of the amicus brief cited from the bench by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, was featured on The High Court Report to discuss the high‑stakes Supreme Court case Montgomery v. Caribe Transport and its potential to reshape the nation’s freight brokerage industry.
In the episode, Mark examines Congress’s intent when it enacted federal preemption in the freight sector and explains how emerging state‑level regulations now threaten to fracture the uniform national framework Congress designed. The conversation highlights the risks posed by a patchwork of 50 state rules to a $343 billion industry that depends on consistency and predictability across state lines.
A preview clip captures Mark’s insights into the federalism issues at the heart of the case and the broader implications for interstate commerce.
The full episode of The High Court Report will be released Thursday and will be available on all major podcast platforms.
