, to block a system of proxy voting put in place during the coronavirus pandemic on the grounds that it is unconstitutional.

Not a single Republican supported the measure as it passed earlier this month, arguing that the Constitution requires a quorum, or a majority, of lawmakers to be physically present in order to vote on measures, thus concluding that the proxy system is unconstitutional. Republicans also worry that the system concentrates too much power in the hands of only a few members.House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif.

Pelosi called the lawsuit a "sad stunt" intended to "delay and obstruct urgently-needed action to meet the needs of American workers and families during the coronavirus crisis."

She is doing exactly what the GOP Governor did in WI. Pass laws just before the majority left office. Politics are going to be just that. So it's at the Fed level now get over it. Not until we have a true party of Independent middle minded people who owe nothing to SIG. DTS

NP is no longer effective, she's merely a mouth-piece for disruptive, Democrats who's sole goal is to oust Trump, the first GOOD President we've had in years!

NP's multiple face-lifts have left her looking surprised all the time! She's pushing age 80,. she's NOT young, and often acts senile. She needs to retire! We NEED terms and should enforce them to eliminate some of these very wealthy has-beens, eating up our tax money!!

100,000 dead Americans. One wrong president.

I really hope the supreme court's make the right decision and kick Pelosi right in the teeth.what she done was wrong and she knows it just like everything else. If the Republicans did something like that she would be calling for impeachment like always!!
