As Justice Sonia Sotomayor writes in dissent, “the constitutionality of hundreds of statutes may now be in peril, and dozens of agencies could be stripped of their power to enforce laws enacted by Congress.”
She acts like it's a bug, but it seems like a feature to me.
Not "enforce laws", protect their grift because "many enforcement proceedings may be brought before administrative law judges"
Huge win for the people.
And very good timing the press is busy with the debate and doesn't have time to shit talk this.
i knew they'd slip in the good stuff when something else big was going on.
This is really big.
It is big, but it still isn't Chevron Deference big. I think this is a precursor to overturning Chevron, which will REALLY gut all the fake laws agencies like ATF, EPA, IRS, and all the rest of them use, that CONgress never voted on.
I believe that ruling will come out late tomorrow - even though they supposedly added more time next week to release decisions.
Bingo! It wasn't late today - it was early. SCOTUS just overturned Chevron!
Remember when the Supreme Court decided Heller versus DC in Heller's favor? Did Dick get his handgun after that? No, DC just passed another law, written in a way so as to avoid the parts previously ruled infringing and Heller was back to square one, having to file another lawsuit. A Court ruling isn't some unbreakable command, people violate Court rulings all the time and the remedy is you have to get the offender back in a Court and hope that Court stops them. But guess what, that can take years, especially if hostile District Courts toss your suits.
The Kings Court is always HOSTILE to the Domestic Terrorists. As are the Esquires.
One can not win a rigged game. Unless you don't play.
You can also win by not playing by the rules. Or accepting a different definition of winning.
