SCOTUS

[Moliere]

Is the argument that agencies should have these powers simply because they are more efficient?

Because they have experts and Congress has always been a mess with regulation. When regulation goes overboard, then lawsuits are filed and it gets worked out. That process seems to work fine to this point.

I think this latest one will be vastly more important. Chevron was one of the most often cited cases ever. And now it’s gone. The significance of that action would be hard to overstate.

Please go on. What do think will happen going forward?

[Jeff Lebowski]

So overturning a ruling that was made in 1984 is "the biggest power grab since 1804"? Oh brother.

Laughable. You guys who think Trump is an existential threat sure want to ensure he has the most power possible at his fingertips.

The article Max posted isn't about Trump. Agree with its conclusions or not, it makes reasoned arguments and I think raises legitimate concerns about powers the court is assuming, even in negating what Congress does.

Interpreting and manufacturing rules. And no, it's no longer a right they have (except for all cases already ruled under the Chevron deference).

I said it was the right of the citizens to vote presidents in and out based on how executive branch agencies which were established by congress are operating under that president.
