Federal Regulation Freeze

[Grayfox]

Among the E.O.s signed by Trump today is a freeze on new federal regulations. While this is in effect for all federal agencies, if I'm understanding this right, it will mean that BATF&E can no longer bend federal laws in such a way as to restrict our 2A rights. No more making legal firearms or accessories suddenly illegal with the stroke of a pen.
Am I wrong? Thoughts? Discussion?

I thought the Supreme Courts reversal of the Chevron doctrine did this. If not one would think the EO puts a temporary end to it.
Board elders?

SCOTUS didn't reverse the Chevron doctrine.
" Rejected any suggestion that agencies, rather than courts, are better suited to determine what ambiguities in a federal law might mean. Even when those ambiguities involve technical or scientific questions that fall within an agency’s area of expertise" John Roberts:

They could still make rules and interpret them as they damn well please, just couldn't us the Chevron doctrine as a defense from being questioned or challenged. Not that any of these agencies give a flying rats tail what SCOTUS, Congress or the Constitution says. Well past time to shut them ALL down, reexamine if they serve a purpose an if so, start fresh with all NEW personnel in a new agency with NO rule making authority. If it's necessary as a rule, then make Congress do its job draft a law, and put it up to a vote of the people representees. (give the sobs something constructive to do) While I'm on a pipe dream, no omnibus rules/law packages or burying in a budget. Let each stand or fail on its own merit.

The EO stops the BATF from making any new regulations . But i don’t know that it stops them from “interpreting” those laws, regs and rules that are already in force, as they see fit.
