The Supreme Court said Wednesday it will consider whether to restrict access to a widely used abortion drug — even in states where the procedure is still allowed.

The case concerns the drug mifepristone that — when coupled with another drug — is one of the most common abortion methods in the United States.

The decision means the conservative-leaning court will again wade into the abortion debate after overturning Roe v. Wade last year, altering the landscape of abortion rights nationwide and triggering more than half the states to outlaw or severely restrict the procedure.

Stfu. Honestly do you have like a baby's understanding of government regulation? Do you think keeping the rat poop out of cereal and the other ten million regulations that keep you safe daily are possible without specialized bodies of administrative agencies regulating thousands of different industries, administering tens of thousands of specialty statutes? You cannot draw a line between "making things illegal that used to be perfectly legal" and keeping the rat poop out of food. Rat poop food was "perfectly legal" and still would be without a Chevron deference, we'd be sitting around waiting for Congress to act and meanwhile we'd all die of plague. What are you, a Libertarian, wants to die from plague?

Re read what I said. My point is that Chevron is inappropriate when applied in criminal matters, as opposed to civil matters.

I don't see the distinction, in your post or in fact. Administrative action is neither criminal or civil, but regulatory. Through its enabling statute and it's own regulations, an agency may avail itself to criminal or civil remedies. Only a prosecutor can prosecute criminal charges in federal court.

Why can Congress delegate "civil" but not "criminal" matters? It can either delegate or not.

Agency functions are rulemaking, adjudication, investigation, enforcement. I think pretty much every federal agency has some level of function for each, each with it's own requirements for due process. Agencies aren't neatly packaged. Got a couple examples of what you're talking about criminal versus civil regulatory action?
