I have a feeling that this will end up in court. It seems a tad unconstitutional for the Federal government to give step in and circumvent state government procedures.
Supreme Court...here we come.
It seems all the governors have standing in such a case. The federal government has no authority to circumvent state’s executive power.
Conservatives seriously need more than just four “truly conservative” U.S. Supreme Court Justices, if they are going to prevail here. Justice Kennedy is part of the “squishy middle” that could go either way. I’m not convinced that the U.S. Supreme Court would definitely vote in the majority for what the “red state” Governors seriously want done on this.
