Democrats Introduce Bill to Reinstate Federal Agency Powers

Legislation led by Sen. Warren aims to counter recent Supreme Court ruling limiting regulatory authority.

The bill seeks to restore Chevron deference, allowing agencies to interpret ambiguous statutes.
Supreme Court's recent decision had curtailed these powers, affecting environmental and consumer protections.
The legislation also includes measures for transparency and efficiency in the rule-making process.
A similar bill has been introduced in the House, but passage is unlikely in the current political climate.
Democrats are also considering broader reforms, including a constitutional amendment to address presidential immunity.
