House Energy and Commerce Committee Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA) issued a statement following the United States Supreme Court's decision to strike down the "Chevron Deference" in Loper Bright Enterprises, et al. v. Raimondo.
Rodgers stated, "Article I of the Constitution established Congress’s role to write the laws of the land—not the Executive Branch. The Supreme Court’s ruling today will help restore the proper balance of power as the Founders envisioned it. Moving forward, major decision-making authority will no longer automatically be deferred to unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats. Power has been placed back in the hands of the American people and their elected representatives, as the Constitution prescribes."
