Supreme Court overturns Chevron in Loper Bright v. Raimondo

The Supreme Court overruled Chevron deference on June 28, 2024, in a 6-3 decision written by Chief Justice John Roberts. Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo held that the Administrative Procedure Act requires courts to decide statutory meaning themselves rather than defer to agency interpretations. Justice Elena Kagan wrote the dissent for the three liberal justices, warning the ruling would transfer policymaking power from agencies to federal judges.
