The decision, though, does far more damage than that.and making it harder to protect our communities from gun violence, the Court’s conservative majority has issued yet another ruling that reaches deep into the everyday lives of ordinary Americans in ways that will have profound and lasting impacts., the Court erected a new barrier to limit the agency’s ability to cut carbon pollution from the nation’s power plants.
That’s because the Court drew on a legal theory called “major questions.” Under this doctrine, the Court held that without clear and explicit language from Congress, the EPA cannot write a rule that would force a national transition away from the use of coal because that would have economic and political significance too vast for agency rulemaking.
Thursday’s ruling throws up for grabs, not only EPA’s ability to protect the environment, but potentially many other standards and rules the public relies on to ensure access to safe homes and workplaces; keep dangerous food and harmful drugs off the counter; provide secure financial markets; protect our savings; and much more.
This article is disingenuous, SCOTUS simply said the EPA was never given the authority they were trying to use, and until Congress gives it that Authority it will lack it. Now whether Congress has the authority to give the EPA that authority is a question.
Stop trying to cheat. Go convince your fellow citizens you’re right and legislation will follow.
If only we had any congress that could perform it's most basic function. Seems the people we've been repeatedly electing for decades refuses to live up to their end of the constitution.

It is Congress job to make laws, not government agencies.
