Why must I still care for someone who doesn't care for me anymore? How do I get past this...
Don't let the media's focus on the debate distract you from what the right is doing RIGHT NOW.
The supreme court has killed the Chevron Deference after almost 50 years. This is a massive decision. They reversed 40 years of precedence in order to gut the federal regulatory agencies and now we will have activist judges, who have no expertise in most of these topics, make decisions for us on medicines, environmental protections, and food.
It is a complete farce and power grab by the right wing nuts and their oligarch masters.
Chevron is the most cited case in US legal history. The Chevron decision basically allowed for regulatory agencies like the EPA, OSHA, and FDA to have experts in their fields at said agencies write regulation (for example: employees must wash hands before returning to work or infected livestock shouldn’t be processed and sold to consumers) so that congress wouldn’t need to explicitly write it into law.
By repealing Chevron basically all regulations currently in place are in limbo. Since basically every regulation relies on Chevron, it would be fairly easy to ignore a regulation and then bring it up to the Supreme Court in the following legal case. But in addition to that, now congress would have to pass and sign every piece of legislative regulations. Things like safe food storage temps, expiration dates, the exact chemical compound in drugs and how they should be administered/taken have to EXPLICITLY be made law to be binding regulation.
TLDR; This is likely going to be one of the most damaging SCOTUS decisions in US history. If we’re lucky enough to not die of rat poison in our food we may be able to see rivers catch on fire again!
