The US Supreme Court is primed to recalibrate government power: “Chevron deference” could be on the justices’ chopping block

Quick Glance: US Supreme Court to Review Government Powers
- The power of 436 federal agencies, responsible for the bulk of the federal government's work from food safety to banking regulations and environmental protection, will be reviewed by the justices on January 17th.
- Both cases involve fishermen dissatisfied with the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), a federal agency tasked with safeguarding America's ocean resources and habitats.
- The justices will decide whether the agency's interpretation is reasonable and thus defer to the agency, even if it's not the court's preferred interpretation.
- Two current justices on the court – Neil Gorsuch and Clarence Thomas – have made it clear that they deeply disdain what has become known as 'Chevron deference'.
