Supreme Court's Chevron Reversal Undermines Federal Regulatory Power

The decision curtails agencies' authority to enforce environmental, health, and safety regulations, shifting power back to Congress.

  • The Supreme Court overturned the Chevron doctrine, ending four decades of deference to federal agencies' expertise.
  • This decision hampers the federal government's ability to regulate pollution and enforce environmental protections.
  • Several recent rulings have preemptively blocked environmental regulations before lower courts could review them.
  • Experts warn that this shift could lead to increased pollution and hinder efforts to combat climate change.
  • The ruling reflects a broader conservative strategy to limit regulatory power and reshape administrative law.
