The #SupremeCourt on Tuesday declined to limit the authority of #statecourts to nullify federal #electionrules set by state #legislatures, leaving in place a key check on state #lawmakers' actions altering how #federalelections in their states are conducted and their drawing of #congressionalmaps.

Last April 12, a joint meeting of committees of the 🇪🇺 and 🇺🇦 parliaments was held remotely.
Inter-parliamentary cooperation between committees in hybrid mode shows its full potential when cooperation must be continuous, not just occasional.

#OnThisDay 1842 the two MPs returned for Sudbury in 1841 were unseated for bribery. The borough was disfranchised 2 years later. The unseated MPs were Frederick Villiers & David Ochterlony Dyce Sombre. The latter [pictured] was among only a handful of non-white MPs in our period. #19thcentury #legislatures

“To me, the most disturbing part of it is just how extreme these #legislatures are willing to go in terms of throwing out other fundamental #rights in order to #attack access to #HealthCare,” Freedman says. “The goalposts are clearly shifting towards a space that is even further disconnected from the opinion of #HealthCareExperts, but also the will of their #voters.”
