MONTGOMERY, AL – Americans for Prosperity-Alabama applauds the Alabama House Judiciary Committee for voting to move the judicial deference bill SB167, sponsored Sen. Arthur Orr and carried in the House by Rep. Bryan Brinyark, out of committee. The 2024 U.S. Supreme Court decision Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo ended the Chevron doctrine at the federal level, and SB167 would end judicial deference at the state level. The bill would require Alabama Courts to interpret statues and regulations without bias in favor of any agencies.
AFP-AL State Director Adam Thompson issued the following statement:
“We thank Rep. Brinyark for championing SB167 in the House and getting it passed in committee. This legislation will help restore judicial impartiality and ensure that the opinions of state bureaucrats do not take precedence over what the law dictates. We look forward to Alabama soon joining the other states who have passed similar legislation.”
