Chevron Deference - What's All The Fuss About?

In this video, we'll look at the Supreme Court's recent decision to overturn Chevron deference and explore its significant impact on the trucking industry. But what exactly is Chevron deference?
Chevron deference is a principle derived from the 1984 Supreme Court case Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. This doctrine allowed federal agencies to interpret ambiguous laws. However, the Supreme Court's new ruling shifts regulatory power, giving judges the final say in law interpretation and limiting the authority of federal agencies.
How does this affect the trucking industry?
Increased Litigation: Motor carriers (MCs) and owner-operators (O/Os) may find it easier to challenge federal regulations in court.
Regulatory Uncertainty: Agencies may issue new regulations more cautiously, knowing they are more susceptible to judicial review.
Operational Changes: Trucking companies might need to adjust operations to comply with new interpretations of regulations, affecting everything from speed limiters on vehicles over 26,000 pounds, electronic logging devices (ELDs) on pre-ELD trucks, to automatic emergency braking systems.
Compliance Costs: The fluctuating legal landscape may result in varying compliance costs for carriers and owner-operators.
