Law Grad Breaks Down SCOTUS Overturning Chevron Deference

Those above the law are the oppressors

I told people that the last two days of SCOTUS rulings has changed more than all the rest of my life and I am 70

The big problem with deference has been that things stopped being decided by 'experts', instead being decided by the newly appointed head however the administration now in charge liked. Change of party, change of rules, what was legal last term was now illegal with penalties that could include imprisonment. This isn't how laws are supposed to work.

“Their own hands” are not safe. They have shown us time and time again

Because of Chevron we have developed into a bureaucratic state/government. Taking away the power from these bureaucratic agencies is good because they represent their interest and not the people's. This is a democratic Republic which is for the people and not the government

She left out the negative impacts that Chevron Deference allowed for. But ok...

Your oversimplification and dire warnings are unwarranted. The Court explained in detail the reasons Chevron was being overturned. It was an arbitrary expansion of Govt power to create regulations without any oversight. In the past few years these alphabet agencies have created and changed regulations on a massive scale which Congress had never envisioned. It needed correction.

This ruling also stopped agencies from creating "regulations" which is essentially creating unlawful laws. Unlawful because these regulations and those agencies do not have to go through our legislature to do so.

I missed the part where We the People created a system which gives unelected "Experts" so much power over the citizens.

This is money back to the people. Less Government is always a good thing.

The problem with Chevron Deference is that these agencies took advantage of their positions of power to pursue agendas that overstepped their perview.

As a non-American, it seems as if your country is full of ambiguous laws that very few understood, leading to government agencies being able to do/say as they please. With this ruling, laws now have to be specific with clear lines of jurisdiction, so that agencies can't overstep their enforcement.

Agencies are not regulating they are legislating, something nonellected officials are not permitted to do.

I dont care if they are so called experts in the field or study, they cannot be both interpreter and enforcer of the statutes. This is wrong and it creates new interpretations with hardly any oversight.

The people did not vote for federal agencies to represent them.

They put it back in the hands of Congress where it belongs.

I noticed a new giving your explanation of Chevron you correctly mention the ambiguity not defaulting to the body of government that made such rules and regulations. After explaining that lobbying overturned when giving examples you did not refer to ambiguity, you made it seem as though laws that are clearly defined with no shades of Gray can now be fought based on this ruling and that's not correct. Depending on the situation. This could be a fantastic thing. ATF is running roughshod and making up new terms and violating people's constitutional rights. This rural lake would be very helpful for individual citizens to have their constitutional rights secured

This is a great thing! ATF perfect example of doing what ever they please making people felons overnight without them knowing. Kudos to the Supreme Court and DJT!

Hallelujah! I don’t agree with SCOTUS often but this is one of the best rulings in decades!

I'm a high school grad and about the chevron decision. It's Congress main purpose is to make laws, not federal agencies.
