The Government Leadership and Public Policy Pillar of Dentons' Infrastructure & Strategic Innovation Think Tank and the Keystone Policy Center co-hosted a virtual roundtable on July 14, discussing updates on the latest Supreme Court term, particularly the impact of the Slaughter decision on independent agency decision-making which reinforces limits on federal agency authority and increases uncertainty around energy and infrastructure regulation, while environmental rules and permitting processes are facing greater legal scrutiny, raising litigation risk and shifting more influence to the states.
