        <text><![CDATA[ <p><b>Separation of Powers Restoration Act of 2017</b></p> <p>This bill replaces the deference given to an agency's interpretation of a statute with a requirement that courts decide all relevant questions of law without giving deference to the agency's interpretation. Thus, this bill overturns <i>Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc.</i></p>]]></text>
