Supreme Court overturns Chevron precedent, limiting federal regulatory power



The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 Thursday to overturn a 40-year-old decision that had given federal agencies broad regulatory power, curtailing the agencies’ ability to enforce regulations. Former federal prosecutor Scott Fredericksen joined CBS News to discuss the decision and attorney and CBS News campaign reporter Katrina Kaufman has more on the cases still on the court’s docket.

    How does this effect me?

  • @Aldarionz9 July 4, 2024

    A further progress of conservative scotus to lead us into oligarchy.

  • @mafrugal July 4, 2024

    Getting rid of all the alphabet rogue Fed. outfits is a step in the right direction…Praise the Lord….

  • @dmashowtime July 4, 2024

    Just get rid of the EPA and ATF

  • @Kamalsakra July 4, 2024

    Good job scotus

  • @MrGmarrone July 4, 2024

    The Supreme Court has put the power back to the people's hands, exactly where it should be. It is about time they did away with unelected bureaucrats creating "laws" that were forced on the American people without their consent.

  • @rocknreality5180 July 4, 2024

    The EPA lol ask Michigan how they like the EPA? OR Huntsville alabama where the water is toxic from military waste.
    Or the Bundys and desert turtles and sage.

    This could save the USA. Down with the corporation

  • @periloustactic July 4, 2024

    It's not the alphabet agencies' job to create law.
    As usual, the democrats aren't happy with the ruling, so it's time to change the rules again.

  • @Blujeanz4070 July 4, 2024

    EPA, have you guys seen what is even in pur drinking water??? They don't keep our water clean!

  • @Blujeanz4070 July 4, 2024

    Government has way too much power over Americans!!!!

  • @Blujeanz4070 July 4, 2024

    Good!!!! Good!!!! Goood!!!!

  • A super majority should not be allowed on the Supreme Court or stuff like this happens! Biden needs to appoint another Justice, since Obama w never did, before he leave office!

  • @survivalpodcasting July 4, 2024

    This is one of the best SCOTUS decisions of all time. It also follows the most basic premise of common law.

    "An ambiguity in a contract benefits the party that did not draft it".

    Very simple and the government drafted it, and the people did not. VERY VERY SIMPLE unless you are a statist id-10-t.

  • @woodspriteful July 4, 2024

    My experience of judges is that they don't know the law, so letting a judge decide on complicated law with total immunity and no guidance by legal regulators is basically an elimination of regulation. Americans are not safe in this tyranny. We won't have a Federal government in the next couple of years. Are the people evolved and protected enough in other ways to thrive (let alone survive) in this environment? I don't know, but I think many will pass on to the afterlife in these circumstances and they typically are the conservatives who aid the top 1% through their ideology in this recent Supreme Court decision.

  • @joshhoward1289 July 4, 2024

    BS. The agencies just can’t make up policies now with anyone questioning them.

  • @B-ROCK5150 July 4, 2024

    Coincidence?? In an election year? The leading candidate is who? I quote. 'We are transferring power from Washington DC and giving it back to you.' THE PEOPLE! 🍿

  • @MRD0889 July 4, 2024

    Ha!!! The fliood gates of lawsuites are opening.
    2 step in courts is done 😂

  • @aaron6587 July 4, 2024

    Thank God this was overturned, we've been subjected to rogue federal agencies for far too long far too many of them also while we're talking about it. Looking forward to having all my suppressor tax stamp money refunded back to me. I hope this costs the federal government billions

  • @TheGothicdolphin July 4, 2024

    Alito's corruption has exceeded that of Thomas! Thomas's interest lies in his wife's income from her leased land. The explanation is lengthy but is outlined in snippets as follows: "The wife of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito leased a plot of land to an oil and natural gas company while the judge was weakening the powers of the Environmental Protection Agency, report says". "In June 2022, Justice Samuel Alito's wife leased a plot of land in Oklahoma to an oil and gas company.
    Alito's wife stands to earn 3/16ths of the money generated from the land should extraction prove successful.
    Alito in several rulings before the court has been part of majority decisions to reduce the scope of the EPA." "But the oil and gas lease troubles many environmentalists given Justice Alito's role in weakening the scope of the Environmental Protection Agency in several cases that have come before the court."

  • @GershonWolf July 4, 2024

    So what was the Oregon Homeless case decision? Don't mention that the decision is in without telling us what it is. Right?

  • @aaronroseman July 4, 2024

    Supreme Court is literally MAGA and traitors to the US… they don’t care about the American people, but they do care about Trump 🙄🙄🙄

  • @Coolguy8623 July 4, 2024

    Dis Band the A T F

  • The ignorance of the pseudo intellectual right wing zealots here is astounding. The effort you people put into your arguments is impressive (not your usual TRUMP 2024 Maga drivel) but it is no less dangerous and ignorant. This is about deconstructing the administrative state and replacing it with a feeble dictator who won't read a one page document. Spin it with all the bizarre interpretations you can muster, it's about ceding control to a convicted felon who would ruin all of us for the fun of it. Fear not, we will do our best to save you from yourselves.

  • @lincolnbishop3345 July 4, 2024

    They are doing everything to fight against the people and our freedom. Regulations are supposed to be for the best interest of the people! This is not for our best interests

  • @adamfindlay7091 July 4, 2024

    I see Fascism and The Devil are near. Jesus will arrive on a pale horse and rid us all. We're wrong. ☮️

  • @yeeyee2278 July 4, 2024

    Im super excited for less regulation, remember how well that went with railroads in ohio a couple years ago? Absolutely 1000 IQ decision. As we all know, corporations have our best interests at heart

  • @hgrim2773 July 4, 2024

    We really going to get the planet killed all for profit…..

  • @dianeharden1090 July 4, 2024

    Please put limits on Supreme court being in office for more than 10 years….

  • @elkwood8 July 4, 2024

    Well… Congress just going to have to earn their money now! This is what happens when Gov. agencies abuse ( weaponize) their power for the last 40 years! If they just stuck to their what the Chevron document was intended for, this probably wouldn't been brought up!

  • @cecilelaforce3686 July 4, 2024

    P.S. Adding to my comment below, I think international regulatory agencies that accept USA approvals should also get involved. The more the better. They want charlie fox? They'll get charlie fox.

  • @cecilelaforce3686 July 4, 2024

    Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 companies with divisions in medical devices, products, pharmaceuticals, etc. are going to rip Scotus a new one. If Scotus thinks deregulating agency rules, costing $billions for private company approvals now, are going to be caught in a litigation cluster fu** to determine what approvals are valid, when, and if they'll change upon the next litigation and require reapproval, THINK AGAIN. Can't wait until the big boy CEOs start coming after Scotus. I'm seeing a partial reversal, manifest injustice, and removal of a few justices.

  • @grziggy July 4, 2024

    EPA, OHSA, FDA gonna have to come up with serious rules

  • Glad for this decision

  • @paddy2081 July 4, 2024

    Based

  • @dannyclark128 July 4, 2024

    Congress is just mad because they now have to pass laws to attack the people instead of letting the executive agencies do it while they choose what country needs our money more than we do😂

  • @JoshHandler-bu1dt July 4, 2024

    Gorsuch got his revenge for his mother's corrupt regime and eventual forced exit as head of the EPA. She was the FIRST agency director to be cited for contempt of Congress & resigned in disgrace. She admitted to playing politics by holding superfund money to hurt a Democrats campaign. Congress does nothing, removing Chevron now relies on corrupt judges who make decisions based on who donates to their house renovations or 100k vacations. The corrupt SCOTUS will now start making decisions telling you what church you should go to, who you should worship, and who gets all the tax free money to fund this extremism.

  • Why WHY why does the scotus overturn a 40;year LAW????????????

  • @Chuck-js8dy July 4, 2024

    GREAT NEWS

  • @cmdzee63 July 4, 2024

    Watching progressive cry harder because their bureaucratic institutions are crumbling around them. I love it. These people claim to be rebels and dissidents but they support the bureaucrats.😂😂

  • @edbenti5007 July 4, 2024

    I hope all you right wingers celebrating this abysmal ruling remember that the Chevron Doctrine was created by a Republican majority Supreme Court of the USA under Reagan. So either the Reagan Republicans were wrong or the Trump/Roberts Republicans who are reportedly TAKING BRIBES are wrong. I guess the latter.

  • @miken7629 July 4, 2024

    This is so wonderful, Bureaucracy had become the fourth and most powerful branch of government, Trump had been trying to rein in Bureaucracy and his Justice picks did the job for him. The idea the Bureaucrats can create laws and penalties by decree is unamerican, unconstitutional, an abuse of power. Now we need budget cuts that cuts down the size of Bureaucracy to reduce the deficit.

  • @jakemf1 July 4, 2024

    Just like Citizens United the effects will be felt later as once again working people will be affected. This is the democrats fault the plan was to hope RBG did not die and they rightwing packed the court with religious nuts

  • @rudewalking July 4, 2024

    If you like lead poisoning, food poisoning, unsafe planes, toxic companies in your back yard, un democratic unscrupulous lower courts deciding how much cancer causing chemicals are in your water, this is a great day for you.

  • @ChadnRanda July 4, 2024

    Very Good… They have to.. You can't let the CDC regulate itself. That's not regulation. If you let me regulate my Business, There would be no regulations on my business.😂 I get it though wait to try to frame it as a bad thing.😮

  • @ShoNuff3K July 4, 2024
