The U.S. Supreme Court’s 6-3 decision in West Virginia v. EPA is truly a landmark ruling.

But the decision goes much further. The Court made it clear that federal agencies may not impose “major federal actions,” decide “major questions” or implement “transformative expansions” of their regulatory authority without specific statutory authority clearly conferred by Congress.
