U.S. Supreme Court Rejects House Republicans' Challenge To Pandemic-Era Voting Rules


The U.S. Supreme Court, on Monday, Declined to hear a Challenge by Republican Lawmakers, to Pandemic-related Proxy Voting Rules, set by Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA, 12th District), in the Democratic-led House of Representatives, that were tailored to limit exposure to COVID-19.

The Voting Rules, implemented in May 2020, allow Members of the 435-seat House, to serve as Proxies for Colleagues in Quarantine or otherwise unable to cast Floor Votes in the Chamber.

House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA, 23rd District), and other Lawmakers had asked the Supreme Court to Reverse a Lower Court decision that allowed the Remote Voting Rules to remain in effect.
