Chevron is gone. What comes next?

The US Supreme Court had a momentous term this spring, with multiple far-ranging and momentous decisions handed down. One such decision was Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, which ended the Chevron doctrine, a long-standing approach to federal regulations. To help explain just how big of a change this may be, guest host Jessa Nicholson Goetz sat down with Steph Tai, a professor at UW-Madison who works on environmental and administrative law, and Evan Feinauer, a lawyer from Clean Wisconsin who works on water regulations. Together they explore just how murky the future is for federal regulations and administrative law in the wake of a judiciary that seems very confident in its ability to settle fine points of interpretation without much expertise in the underlying field.
