Repeatedly overturning decades old rulings is the definition of an activist court, something the Republicans were bitching about constantly for several decades, even when it wasn’t happening. And now, Democrats are mute.
Where the hell is the outrage?
Probably in an offshore bank account.
I hate that you’re probably right.
I’m more familiar with the automotive sector, but this is pretty huge. The Clean Air Act only said that the EPA should limit emissions. The standardized drive cycles and testing procedure were all determined by the EPA themselves. What happens now if an automaker challenges these procedures? The EPA loses authority to create the test procedures, and the automakers can just give them numbers and say “trust us”
I can’t imagine that Congress could competently create laws for vehicle test procedures themselves. I imagine we’ll just default to California testing requirements for a lot of cars, but I don’t imagine it’s going to play out well as a whole
This is going to be awful. Deregulation of the FDA and labor agencies is going to fuck us over.
