SALT LAKE CITY — Utah's political leaders appear to be encouraging a series of lawsuits against the federal government following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision Friday striking down the Chevron doctrine.

"No other legislative branch in the nation has fought federal overreach as relentlessly as Utah. This decision marks the beginning of even greater victories in our battle for state sovereignty," House Speaker Mike Schultz, R-Hooper, wrote in a post on X celebrating the decision. "This information will be vital as we rectify unconstitutional federal regulations that have significantly harmed our state and citizens," Senate President J. Stuart Adams, R-Layton, said in a statement to FOX 13 News on the decision.

"The principle of deferring to federal agencies interpretation of a federal statute, as long as that interpretation is reasonable, has for the past 40 years, empowered federal agencies to grow their missions and expand their power in ways that are consistently bad for state authority, bad for economic growth and bad for individual liberty and human flourishing," he said in the video.
