Supreme Court Upholds OSHA's Regulatory Authority
News summary

The US Supreme Court declined to hear a case that could have significantly reduced the authority of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The challenge, brought by Ohio-based Allstates Refractory Contractors, argued that Congress had unconstitutionally delegated its legislative powers to OSHA. Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch wanted to hear the case, citing concerns over the broad regulatory power granted to OSHA, but were overruled by their colleagues. The case emerged after OSHA fined Allstates in 2019 for safety violations, prompting the company to sue. This decision leaves OSHA's regulatory power intact, despite ongoing conservative efforts to limit executive agency authority.
