Supreme Court to weigh in on government power and agency authority.
TL;DR Summary
The US Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal that challenges the 1984 Chevron case, which allows federal agencies to fill in the details of laws that are not crystal clear. The case has been frequently cited and limiting its reach or overturning it altogether could limit the discretion of federal officials to regulate in a wide range of American life. The court's conservative majority has already been reining in federal regulators, and at least four conservative members of the court have questioned the doctrine.
