Sen. Elizabeth Warren introduces bill to reverse Supreme Court deregulatory ruling


In Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo and Relentless, Inc. v. Department of Commerce, the corprate-owned justices overturned the "Chevron deference" precedent that had been recognized for four decades. Where laws are ambiguous, Chevron deference allowed federal agencies to make regulations. Under the new ruling, federal judges would substitute their judges for that of agency experts in a wide range of technical fields. Warren's bill will restore the deference rule by statute. Warren believes that the Court's ruling will open the door to giant corporations to get favorable judicial rulings that endanger the general public, workers, and consumers.
