I’ve come full circle on this. I started by believing it was 100% unconstitutional, and well it may be, but the Supreme Court hasn’t ruled on matters of procedure, just on content of legislation.
However, if it does skirt the rules of the Constitution, there is no way this protects the Dems who vote for this.
They still will take the full-court fall.
And they know this.
So it is still dead on arrival.
From the article: "As the Supreme Court wrote in Clinton v. City of New York (1998), a bill containing the ‘exact text’ must be approved by one house; the other house must approve ‘precisely the same text.’”
Sure sounds like they ruled on (relevent) procedure to me.
