Comment on T-Mobile In Trouble After It Decides To Build Cell Tower That Is 'Not Safe' For Residents
bassomitron@lemmy.world 4 months agoWith the supreme Court overturning the Chevron decision last week, I’m not so sure that any federal regulatory bodies have much power anymore unless there’s a specific law passed by Congress. That’s what made that decision so dangerous, because the same applies to the FDA now regarding drugs and food.
