In a major decision, the Supreme Court overturned the Chevron doctrine in a 6–3 vote.

Critics called Chevron the “Lord Voldemort” of administrative law. So what was Chevron deference exactly? How did it transform the federal government? And what are the implications of this recent Supreme Court decision?

In this episode, Jan Jekielek does a deep dive with constitutional law scholar and Columbia Law professor Philip Hamburger: “If you have a system requiring you to rule by law, perhaps if you want more power, you want to rule by rules. Then if you don’t like that, you rule by subtle threats and other modes of persuasion. There is a cascade down from elevated modes of governance to less elevated modes of governance with less accountability.”

Prof. Hamburger is founder and CEO of the New Civil Liberties Alliance, which argued the two relevant cases in front of the Supreme Court.
