What was the case precedent?
You should look up the major questions doctrine, non-delegation principle, and major rules doctrine. All different words for the same thing.
This type of ruling is nothing new.
So can you give specifics? For those of us who are trying to decipher the fall out?
I'm not sure what you want me to say.
The court has long-ruled that any delegation of powers by Congress must be specific. If it is overly vague and an agency exploits that, it is to be assumed that the exploitation was not what Congress intended and disallowed.
Of course, what is considered vague and an exploit is determined by whatever court hears that case at the time. It's always a case-by-case basis, and it's mostly just them making it up as they go along. Precedents only go so far as no two cases are the same.
