The Supreme Court’s decision on June 28 to eliminate the Chevron deference doctrine has sent ripples through both the judicial and regulatory landscapes. For nearly forty years, Chevron deference allowed federal regulators extensive authority to interpret ambiguous laws. The 6-3 decision, stemming from the cases Loper Bright v. Raimondo and Relentless v. Department of Commerce, marks a significant shift that is expected to curtail the power of federal agencies significantly.
In a recent webinar, Bloomberg Law’s Kimberly Robinson, Bloomberg Government analyst Karl Evers-Hillstrom, and Bloomberg Law principal legal analyst Erin Webb discussed the implications of this ruling. The conversation, led by Executive Editor Jo-el Meyer, delved into the immediate and long-term effects of the decision on legal and regulatory practices.
