Chevron Deference, Overruled

On this Episode: On Friday, SCOTUS overruled the legal doctrine known as Chevron Deference in a 6-3 decision authored by Chief Justice John Roberts.
For almost 40 years, Chevron served as a legal structure through which courts may review, approve, and reject regulations in the context of statutory intent. Justices Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor, and Katanji Brown-Jackson dissented, arguing that deference should be given to agency expertise to clarify ambiguities in statutes.
In this special re-release of On the Ballot's coverage from earlier in the year, we unpack Chevron Deference’s history, how the doctrine works, the arguments for and against keeping it around, and what its future might look like after SCOTUS’s decision.
