Senator Elizabeth Warren, alongside colleagues like Bernie Sanders and Cory Booker, has introduced the Stop Corporate Capture Act (SCCA) to counter the Supreme Court's recent annulment of the Chevron doctrine. This legislation aims to reinstate federal agency authority in interpreting ambiguous laws, crucial for safeguarding worker protections, environmental standards, and corporate regulations. Rep. Pramila Jayapal emphasizes the need for "scientific and public integrity" over corporate influence, hoping to foster equitable regulation processes. The act could also mitigate aggressive immigration enforcement by not constraining courts to agency interpretations, while enhancing local public participation in rulemaking. Legal experts and advocates in Cleveland support reforms targeting transparency and accountability in business operations.

Critics argue that his approach undermines civil rights and public safety initiatives in Cleveland and beyond. Local officials and legal advocates are concerned about the implications of Vance's proposed measures on vulnerable communities.
