[blindLaw] Disability Rights and Public Health laws Put at Risk by Recent Supreme Court Decisions

[omar duncan]

I ain’t no lawyer but I do have a basic legal understanding from undergrad
years and did a good amount of reading on it about chevron deference


I think it just means that congress has to pass those public safety laws
directly or the courts rule it to be the case through presentment if the
case relates to such a matter is adjudicated by the court.

It simply means that federal bureaucracy can’t make their own
interpretations on existing laws and that they have less discretion


I do not think that is exclusively a bad thing or a good thing.


Perhaps it is both depending on the situation.

There are some matters like public health where it may be ideal for federal
agencies to do agency imposed regulations.

By contrast, in some situation, we might be dealing with government
overreach or situations where salaried, unelected bureaucrats have too much
control instead of congress.


At the end of the day, the constitution enumerates that congress passes
laws and that the federal agencies and president just enforce at the end of
the day.
