Brooke Ringel Quoted in Inside U.S. Trade Article on the Overturning of Chevron

The decision in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo may change how trade law is interpreted by the courts, but Brooke was in agreement with other trade practitioners interviewed that broader implications of Loper Bright for trade-related agencies won’t be clear until there are more cases to work from, which means waiting for new legal challenges to work their way through the court system in the coming years.
