The Supreme Court is reviewing a doctrine known as Chevron deference, which grants federal agencies the authority to interpret ambiguous laws within their jurisdiction. This doctrine has been pivotal in enabling agencies to set regulations in sectors ranging from energy to telecommunications. Critics argue it grants too much power to regulatory bodies, whereas supporters claim it is essential for effective governance. A ruling against Chevron deference could significantly impact how agencies regulate industries, including the energy sector, and may curtail their abilities to enforce environmental and safety standards.
