    Didn't the supreme court recently overturn the Chevron Doctrine?

    Doesn't that mean agencies like this are not free to set their own rules when a law is ambiguous?

    And isnt the cap on number of households reached actually codified unambiguously in federal law?

    Seems to me like this should not be allowed to happen.

    Let me know if I am wrong.

      The law isn't ambiguous.

        True, I tried to convey that.
