Potential Chevron decision impact on things like household appliances?

I don’t think it’s entirely clear how it will shake out yet, but if I’m a car or appliance manufacturer I’m suing the government Monday and praying to God Trump wins so they don’t destroy my business in 2025 if Biden gets back in office.

It’s entirely clear however there will be a barrage of suits brought against the ATF which could enhance gun rights significantly.

Trump walks in on day one and reverses all regulations back to January 2020. Done.

The removal of Chevron deference doesn't mean that the Administrative agencies cant make regulations. It just means if they make a regulation that may overstep their statutory authority and they get taken to court, their interpretation of the statute is no longer given deference. So the courts will hear from the EPA experts and will hear from the AC company's experts and will decide if the action was within the agency's powers.

Then if congress doesn't like the way the court interpreted the statute, they can just pass a new statute that allows it.

I think that was the case where the court said that agencies can't make these monumental decisions with outsized impact on the nation. If an agency wants to do something like that, Congress has to say it explicitly.

The likely hood is that those cases will need to be reopened individually.

Agreed.

he Chevron rule has been in place for 40 years. There is no way to simply erase 40 years of policy. The ruling gives back the power to enforce policy to judges to make rulings on complicated policy issues and no longer gives deference to the administrative bodies for each respective issue.

Once the first case breaks against the government it’ll be clear there is no legal backing for anything those agencies did without legislative support and the retreat will be on.

Unless the DNC can control congress and the WH in 2024+ to push through actual legislation to reinstate the agency mandated you are about to see massive changes in multiple industries.

But the more I look at it, that doesn’t appear to be what we are getting

I believe it did, it just requires the companies impacted to object and then we will know for sure what the courts will sustain, but based on this ruling I don’t see how the tide doesn’t largely wash away much of what was done when the cases settle in a few years, particularly if Trump wins in 2024.

Just because the agency's interpretation of the statute isn't given deference doesn't mean that interpretation is automatically wrong.

That's the issue lost in the reporting of this in the echo chamber.

Many (most? a super majority?) of the regulations will be upheld without Congressional action to write longer, more detailed statutes to fill the gaps.

because lawsuits will eat up way too much of their budget

These agencies aren't Jeff Landry and they don't farm out their difficult legal work

1000s of companies will bring lawsuits against them because their bullshite regulations are costing them billions of dollars a year

This ruling is huge and will affect every government agency.

All their CO2 regulations are dead now.

In 2017, Volkswagen AG (VW) agreed to pay $4.3 billion in criminal and civil penalties to settle charges related to a scheme to cheat on U.S. emissions tests. The settlement included a $2.8 billion criminal penalty, which was the largest ever imposed on an automaker at the time

I’d like to know if VW could say these rules forced them to cheat.

4.5 billion is a lot of money.
