The U.S. Supreme Court has overturned the 40-year-old Chevron Doctrine, which directed courts to give deference to federal agencies’ interpretations of ambiguous statutes. The doctrine has been a case-determining factor in thousands of issues before the court, including telecommunications cases. Some believe that the FCC’s recent order reinstating Title II regulation for broadband providers could be at risk following the end of the Chevron Doctrine. https://lnkd.in/eX8q_6Ay

Major progress for the Balancing Act Project! I am very proud to be supporting this initiative and joining some of the brightest minds. I look forward to further contributing to impactful research and innovative solutions that will drive meaningful change. In 1984, the Chevron case shifted power from Congress to the federal agencies, leading to vague laws and limited challenges to agency policies. However, this is changing with the recent Supreme Court ruling in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, and Relentless, Inc. v. Department of Commerce. Agencies now must prove in federal court that their regulations are within the authority granted by Congress. Unable to act on behalf of their constituents, Congress has yielded too much power to the executive branches of government dubbed "Chevron Deference." For 40 years, Chevron Deference has burdened the U.S. economy, costing the healthcare sector $190.4 billion, financial services $111.8 billion, and the industry most affected, energy and environment, over $640 billion annually. Regulations are important to uphold a fair and open market structure, but they must be made following the laws written by elected representatives. Federal agencies should not serve as both lawmaker and enforcer. The end of the Chevron Deference marks a significant shift towards holding agencies accountable and reducing the regulatory burden on the economy.

The End of Chevron?--What it Would Mean for Lower Courts, Federal Agencies, and Regulated Industry

As discussed by Alan Kaplinsk, the upcoming Supreme Court ruling has the ability to fundamentally change the regulatory landscape that has been in effect since 1984. One of the key questions: To what extent should Federal Courts defer to decisions by Administrative Agencies?
Should the U.S. Court Supreme Court overrule its 1984 decision in Chevron, U.S.A., Inc. v. Nat. Res. Def. Council, Inc.? That decision established what became known as “Chevron deference” – which requires courts to accept a federal agency’s interpretation of federal law, but only if indicated by a two-step analysis set forth in the nearly 40-year-old decision. In this blog post for Consumer Finance Monitor, Alan Kaplinsky examines last week’s oral arguments and which Justices appear most inclined to favor overruling, limiting or reaffirming Chevron.

Overturning decades of sound jurisprudence (so-called “Chevron deference”), the US Supreme Court has just held that a single judge has more expertise on determining the meaning of specialized laws, where ambiguous, than the very agencies created by law to enforce them. Holds the Court:. “Perhaps most fundamentally, Chevron's presumption is misguided because agencies have no special competence in resolving statutory ambiguities. Courts do.” Yikes. And dead wrong. #chevrondeference #scotus #consumerfinance #administrativelaw #apa #regulation https://lnkd.in/g9y5-ErG
