SCOTUS - Chevron Doctrine


Recommended Posts

I just read an article about SCOTUS overturning the  Chevron Doctrine and while this particular case had to do with fishing, it seems to me that it could, or maybe should have a very direct affect on the ability of the ATF to make up all their silly rules. I don’t see how this ruling can apply to some Federal agencies and not others.   What do y’all experts think?

According to the article below, the SCOTUS ruling will impact all federal agencies. This issue is when Congress passes laws that are ambiguous.

Now, instead of the deferring to the executive branch, the federal judges will now have the first and final word about what statutes mean.

Therefore, Congress needs to pass laws with specificity when it wants to give an agency authority to regulate on an issue of major national significance.

We saw them utilize this position in the Bump stock ruling, it was NOT a 2nd Amendment thing, it was set aside because ATF exceeded their authority under the Administrative Procedures Act.  (By the way you can count on the ATF and DOJ not appealing the brace rule out of the 5th Circuit either now).

It will make legislatures have to step up and be specific.  The People will have a chance to sue to get courts to recognize their rights instead of just dealing with unelected bureaucrats.

It will also affect TBI, DOS and the Governors spokespersons coming into committees in Nashville to "philosophically oppose" restorative 2nd Amendment bills.
