Decided
Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo
Administrative Law6-3
In one of the most consequential decisions in decades, the Supreme Court overturned the 40-year-old Chevron doctrine. Under Chevron, courts had deferred to federal agencies' interpretations of ambiguous laws. Now, courts must use their own independent judgment when interpreting statutes, rather than automatically deferring to the government's reading.
