Rutherford v. United States · ¶78

When a statute expressly delegates authority to an agency in this way, “[a] reviewing court is not free to set aside” the agency's actions “simply because it would have interpreted the statute in a different manner.” Batterton, 432 U. S., at 425 (citing American Telephone & Telegraph Co. v. United States, 299 U. S. 232, 235–237 (1936)). Instead, the Court must determine “ `the boundaries of [the agency's] delegated authority' ” and “ensur[e] the agency has engaged in `reasoned decisionmaking' within those boundaries.” Loper Bright, 603 U. S., at 395.
