A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit House Republicans brought against Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) over a proxy-voting rule change that would allow, for the first time in American history, lawmakers to vote on legislation without actually showing up.
According to Politico, Judge Rudolph Contreras of the Washington, D.C., federal district court did not weigh the merits of the case but instead dismissed it after determining he could not legally review it due to the Constitution’s Speech and Debate Clause.
