Bloomberg Law Podcast Finale: After Loper Bright, Congress Weighs Sweating the Small Stuff

Bloomberg Law’s UnCommon Law podcast finishes its series on the “story behind the fishing industry’s Chevron doctrine challenge.” This episode is on: “After Loper Bright, Congress Weighs Sweating the Small Stuff”

In this season finale, we hear from a current and a former senator on opposite sides of the aisle who both argue that Congress must reclaim its constitutional role. They agree that decades of delegating authority to agencies has weakened the legislature, but they diverge on what should happen next. Should lawmakers strip out vague catchall words to limit agency discretion? Or should Congress work more closely with agencies to ensure workable, expert-informed legislation?

Featuring:

• Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo.
• Former Sen. Heidi Heitkamp, D-N.D.
