In Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, the U.S. Supreme Court famously overruled the Chevron doctrine, under which courts were required to defer to “permissible” interpretations of an ambiguous statute by the federal agency charged with administering it—even if the court read the statute differently. The Court concluded that “[i]n the business of statutory interpretation, if it is not the best, it is not permissible.”
