June 20, 2024 // Limiting Chevron may also enhance regulatory certainty. Currently, an agency’s reasonable interpretation of a statute can shift from one administration to another.

WICHITA: Nurses at Ascension Via Christi hit the picket line
June 28, 2023 // While the nurses plan to walk back into the hospital Wednesday morning to resume their work, Ascension Via Christi said nurses who participated in the strike won’t be allowed to work until Saturday, July 1. Watson said, “Ascension locking us out was definitely retaliation, but locking out nursing is locking out your community. I am part of the community, and they’re locking us out of the hospital. We’re still going to try to work tomorrow. We’re going to show us. It’s going to be business as usual. Hopefully, they will do the right thing and let nurses work.”
