The Supreme Court is certainly dominating headlines as of late. While mainstream media is focusing much of its attention on the Roe v.

The 6-3 decision essentially states that anytime an agency attempts to adopt rules that are transformational to the economy (i.e., climate change regulations), the regulation is presumptively invalid unless Congress has provided its stamp of approval.
