BREAKING: the Supreme Court’s unanimous ruling in our faithless electors case is a win for orderly elections and our constitutional democracy.
The majority opinion by Justice Kagan, unlike the oral argument, does not mention Frodo Baggins. It does mention Veep and Hamilton, the musical. It also embraces our key arguments.
For a reflection on the oral argument, and a discussion of the Frodo Baggins point, see this video from our #ColoradoGoesSupreme series.
This Wednesday, May 13th at 9 am (on CSPAN.org), I will argue before #SCOTUS on behalf of Colorado to defend our election laws.
Our office is taking this opportunity to engage students of all ages in a chance to learn about our Constitution and election system in #ColoradoGoesSupreme. Please spread the word. coag.gov/civics/
For those interested in this case, @allisonsherry of @CPRNews has explained the relevant issues: “What’s at stake in this case is whether or not our elections system will function as it has for literally over 220 years, or open a Pandora’s box.” cpr.org/2020/05/08/a-c…
Thanks, @Dahlialithwick, for inviting me to join you to talk about #federalism, the #TenthAmendment, and serving as a State AG. In this thread, I will highlight some of the points we touched on. slate.com/podcasts/amicu…
As I noted at the outset, @Dahlialithwick is amazing. She masterfully captured Justice Ginsburg's delivery of a speech originally written by her husband Marty, entitled "How the Tenth Circuit Got My Wife Her Good Job.” Warning--be ready for a good cry. slate.com/news-and-polit…
We spent a lot of time talking about #federalism and #separationofpowers. Both principles are part of our legal fabric and embodied in our Constitution. In a recent decision I discuss, Colorado defended both and won an important victory over the DOJ. coag.gov/press-releases…
