The Supreme Court on Wednesday heard a pair of cases that could disrupt the balance of power in Washington, D.C., making it harder for federal agencies to impose new rules and regulations without getting them passed by Congress first. In Relentless v. Department of Commerce and Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, the court is considering whether to repeal a 1984 decision that gives broad authority to federal officials. Congress, meanwhile, would face pressure to pass more detailed laws and to stop relying on federal agencies to figure out how to achieve goals like reducing the cost of health care or cleaning the air.
