August 23, 2023 – Clinic Faculty Director Andrew Mergen spoke with Harvard Law professor and Environmental & Energy Law Program (EELP) founding director Jody Freeman on a CleanLaw Podcast episode about a case the US Supreme Court will hear this fall, Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, in which petitioners have asked the Court to overrule the Chevron doctrine—a legal doctrine that governs when a court should defer to an agency’s interpretation of a law.
