“Other Supreme Court decisions last term garnered more attention, including on abortion pills and presidential immunity. But many legal experts say Chevron could be one of the most significant rulings of this generation because of its sweep.”
“The legal precedent had been cited in more than 18,000 decisions over the past four decades. Its demise has unleashed a new flood of challenges to the regulatory power of federal agencies, and Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy seized on it last month as a key tool in their quest to slash thousands of federal jobs and dismantle bureaucracy as part of the incoming Trump administration.”
