The problem is congress delegating THIER authority to these unelected bureaucrats in the EPA. They give them these broad mandates to “Reduce Pollution” and leave it to the bureaucrats to define what pollution is, how much to reduce it, and what methods to use. And since the goal of every bureaucrat is increase the power and funding of their organization they are going to define pollution as broadly as they can, and use the most heavy handed, labor intensive means of enforcing it.

Yes. Imagine you gave a power of attorney to another. If that person assigned the POA to another, would it be legal? No.

In like fashion, and despite what Scotus has ruled, Congress cannot legally grant the legislative authority given to it by the people and states, to another entity.
