I am NOT a lawfag, but many anons ARE, and may find this news very interdasting. The SCOTUS is considering the viability of the Chevron doctrine. What is the Chevron doctrine?

From Wikipedia:

Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc., 467 U.S. 837 (1984), was a landmark case in which the United States Supreme Court set forth the legal test for determining whether to grant deference to a government agency's interpretation of a statute which it administers. The decision articulated a doctrine now known as "Chevron deference". The doctrine consists of a two-part test applied by the court, when appropriate, that is highly deferential to government agencies: first, whether Congress has spoken directly to the precise issue at question, and second, "whether the agency's answer is based on a permissible construction of the statute."

Chevron is one of the most important decisions in U.S. administrative law, and has been cited in thousands of cases since being issued in 1984.

This could have FAR-reaching implications on our every-day lives, as it originally had when it was decided.
