Chevron

The recent Chevron Case by the Supreme Court has reduced the power of the bureaucracy. Congress passes laws and the bureaucrats determine how to carry out the laws. This gives the bureaucracy power to be strict or lax when it comes to interpretation. This is a setback for people who want more power to the federal government. For example the EPA could announce that all gasoline powered cars get 50 mpg and this would speed up the move to EV's but should this be under the purvey of a bureaucrat. Over the past 50 years both the congress and the executive branches have ceded power to the bureaucrats and this will move that ceded power to the courts.
