WASHINGTON, DC (6/28/24) – Today, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a 6-3 opinion in Loper Bright Enterprises, et al. v. Raimondo overturning the 1984 decision in Chevron v.

Glenn Youngkin of Virginia announced that Virginia has opted against adopting the emissions mandate set by California, choosing instead to transition back to the Federal rules by year-end.
