Gorsuch v. Kagan in West Virginia v. EPA 

In a 6-3 decision, SCOTUS rejected the Environmental Protection Agency’s sweeping claim of regulatory authority under the Clean Air Act. The Court stated that EPA could not satisfy the “major questions” doctrine nor “point to ‘clear congressional authorization’” to devise carbon emissions limits. Chief Justice Roberts delivered the opinion of the Court, Justice Gorsuch filed a concurring opinion, and Justice Kagan a dissenting opinion.
