the decision just says the EPA can’t define stuff w/o congress, no? so congress just needs to pass a law with the same rules. dems are in power it should be as simple as pie lmao

but i think they’ll lay this one on the altar of “things we cant do anything about because someone we can override said no”

Basically says agencies like the EPA can’t make their own rules, that responsibility/power lies with the legislature. The “rulemaking power” can’t be delegated, essentially.
