"Supreme Court's Landmark Challenge: Reeling in Government Power"

The Supreme Court's conservative majority appears inclined to challenge the Chevron doctrine, a legal theory giving deference to federal agency regulations, in response to lawsuits from East Coast fishermen contesting a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) rule. Justices expressed concerns about the doctrine's impact on various groups and its potential for instability, while the government argued that overturning Chevron would disrupt the legal framework. The fishermen argue that the mandated cost of at-sea monitors significantly impacts their businesses, and a ruling is expected by late June.
