This is assuming the EPA still exists in a year, which I'm giving 50/50 odds.

It'll still exist, however, it's powers will be reduced to nothing with the death of Chevron deference in June.

This PFAs decision would be a prime example of something the EPA won't be able to regulate without a new congressional bill approving it.
