Chevron was a Supreme Court opinion from 1984 (EDITED: Not from the early 1970’s) that gave federal agencies broad discretion to interpret legislative intent. These agencies passed thousands of “regulations” some of which are (or were) punishable by prison and fines.

Basically, the agencies are on the Executive branch and were riding the Chevron Deference as it became known to pass laws. That is not a power of the Executive Branch.

This is a huge win for freedom. Before Chevron, any ambiguity in legislation fell in favor of We the People. Going back to the Constitutional separation of powers will reduce the size of government and its intrusion on every aspect of American life.
