Impact of Overturning Chevron Deference on Administrative State

The recent overturning of the Chevron deference doctrine has significant implications on the balance of power within the administrative state. For the past 40 years, executive agencies have received substantial deference in interpreting statutes, but now, courts have regained the authority to independently review and strike down agency rules, reducing the potential for regulatory overreach. This shift in power to the judiciary and potentially to Congress is seen as a way to ensure greater accountability and prevent unchecked expansion of agency authority.
