Starting with one of the earliest (proto) major questions cases, FDA v. Brown &amp; Williamson, and continuing through modern MQD cases like Biden v. Nebraska, the Court has relied on rejected bills, post-enactment statements by individual legislators, and congressional inaction to deny the executive branch claimed statutory authority.

Agency rulemaking now unfolds against a backdrop of forum shopping and activist judging that often derails regulation from ever taking effect. This Article argues that Congress should respond to this dynamic by deploying strong statutory default provisions\u2014\u201chammers\u201d\u2014that take effect absent timely agency action. While prior scholarship has treated hammers primarily as deadline-enforcement tools for administrative agencies, this Article emphasizes their structural function in this era of cynical litigation: hammers reshape incentives for agencies, regulated entities, and judges, channeling&hellip; <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n<\/li><li class=\"wp-block-post post-4693 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-jol-online tag-jol-online-march-2026\">\n<h2 style=\"color:#9c343b;padding-right:0;padding-left:0\" class=\"has-link-color wp-elements-71bfbd9d24a3306087a8ce72aa1c408e wp-block-post-title has-text-color has-large-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/journals.law.harvard.edu\/jol\/2026\/03\/03\/the-retreat-of-cooperative-federalism-water-rights-in-a-fragmented-regulatory-era\/\" target=\"_self\" >The Retreat of Cooperative Federalism: Water Rights in a Fragmented Regulatory Era<\/a><\/h2>\n\n<div style=\"color:#9c333ab8\" class=\"has-link-color wp-elements-f4c44ebc6efc828361525a60f0edd76d wp-block-post-date has-text-color\"><time datetime=\"2026-03-03T10:37:36-05:00\">March 3, 2026<\/time><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-7387b849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-constrained wp-block-column-is-layout-constrained\"><div style=\"color:#9c333ab8\" class=\"taxonomy-post_tag has-link-color wp-elements-71669b3ba49cd58868c7446efebbfcaa wp-block-post-terms has-text-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/journals.law.harvard.edu\/jol\/tag\/jol-online-march-2026\/\" rel=\"tag\">JOL Online (March 2026)<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"color:#121212c9\" class=\"has-link-color wp-elements-abca790981a2623df4171f2c0c5a75ff wp-block-post-excerpt has-text-color\"><p class=\"wp-block-post-excerpt__excerpt\">Representative Hillary J. Scholten[*] Abstract Before Congress stepped in to protect America\u2019s waters, pollution in our rivers and wetlands poisoned humans and wildlife alike. After the Supreme Court\u2019s decision in Sackett v. Environmental Protection Agency, Congress is at another turning point. This article draws on the principles of cooperative federalism embedded in the Clean Water Act (\u201cCWA\u201d) to argue that a strong federal regulatory floor is essential to address the inherently interstate and interconnected nature of water resources.
