Supreme Court overturns Chevron precedent, limiting federal regulatory power

The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 Thursday to overturn a 40-year-old decision that had given federal agencies broad regulatory power, curtailing the agencies' ability to enforce regulations. Former federal prosecutor Scott Fredericksen joined CBS News to discuss the decision and attorney and CBS News campaign reporter Katrina Kaufman has more on the cases still on the court's docket.

Great job SCOTUS on Chevron, it's long overdue.

[boethius]

Criminal unelected tyrants in government big mad

[gregorycooper]

He lied. It's not enforcing regulations, they are adding restrictions that were never intended by the original law. Key word LAW. If it isn't a LAW It's not enforceable.

Better start holding those corporations accountable when making purchases like there's no tomorrow.

Well, if people still want to vite based on entertainment and not functionality, America is about to pay a very steep price for its stupidity.

This is one of the best SCOTUS decisions of all time. It also follows the most basic premise of common law.

"An ambiguity in a contract benefits the party that did not draft it".

Very simple and the government drafted it, and the people did not. VERY VERY SIMPLE unless you are a statist id-10-t.

I hope people go back to growing their own foods. The food chain already has compounds in the products that causes cancer. It will get worse after this ruling. No regulations or minimal regulations means anything goes as long it is profitable.

To prevent any branch of government becoming too powerful, powers were separated: Congress writes laws, the Executive branch approves them, and the Supreme Court interprets laws. In 1984 the Supreme Court (with three Justices absent) wrote a decision known as the "Chevron decision", which combined all powers under the Executive branch. The President and his staff now had authority to write laws and interpret them, without the other branches of government. Today's Supreme Court decision weakens the Chevron decision, which helps to restore the separation of powers.

We’ll finally we have some common sense and the executive branch can’t just hand down any regulatory law it wants regulation cost Americans money now the White House can’t put onerous regulations on anything they want

[ChadnRanda]

Very Good... They have to.. You can't let the CDC regulate itself. That's not regulation. If you let me regulate my Business, There would be no regulations on my business.😂 I get it though wait to try to frame it as a bad thing.😮

[dianagross]

Well I'm all for regulations against widespread pollution for profit and corporate monopolies. However I don't think that the fisherman should have been obligated to pay the salaries of those who boarded their fishing vessels to monitor them. That's what who brought this case

[grziggy]

EPA, OHSA, FDA gonna have to come up with serious rules

[Mindspanker]

“We the corporations of the United States of America.”

[rmmm]

This doesn’t mean regulatory laws can’t be passed, it just means they can’t be passed by unelected bureaucrats

[cmdzee]

Watching progressive cry harder because their bureaucratic institutions are crumbling around them. I love it. These people claim to be rebels and dissidents but they support the bureaucrats.😂😂

[startingQB]

This is kinda terrifying. I was a sickly kid in the 90's. I cant go back to that because corporations want to be cheap and greedy and destroy the environment.

[mikejohnson-dlvt]

Wait, so who Scheduled can-a-bis as "1" in the first place?? Undo it (at Least remove from the FFL Form!)🙄🤬

[billstreet]

[GershonWolf]
