"Supreme Court Considers Limiting Federal Agency Power in Landmark Case"

TL;DR Summary
The Supreme Court is divided over whether to limit the power of federal agencies, with conservatives questioning the deference given to government experts and liberals expressing concern about shifting power to unelected judges. The court's decision in cases brought by herring fishermen could have far-reaching implications for federal agency regulation. Justices Kavanaugh and Gorsuch expressed skepticism about the long-standing Chevron precedent, while liberal justices worried about courts becoming policymakers. The decision may hinge on Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Barrett, and could impact the balance of power between agencies, courts, and Congress.
