I applaud him for trying something, but it’s pure symbolism. He would be better advised to introduce a bill limiting scotus’ ability to rule federal laws unconstitutional under Congress’ power per Article III. It wouldn’t pass either, though the bar is slightly lower, but it would shake people up and bring that power to light.

How about a law that says plainly that a SCOTUS decision that is rendered and deemed as creating a Law, which is not within the scope of the Court’s power under the Constitution, States can vote such a ruling of law invalid by a simple majority in their legislatures.

And you know it is symbolism how? Did God grant you the ability to read the hearts of men and know their motivations and he did not notify me that you have that ability?

Specious argument at best, and I doubt that from you given your posting history where Cruz is concerned.

Right now, using your filter, everything is symbolic given who is in leadership positions in the GOP-E and therefore, we should just resign ourselves to the status quo.
