Congresswoman Elise Stefanik has signed onto an amicus brief requesting a lawsuit be brought to the Supreme Court by the Attorney General of Texas. The amicus brief that was signed by over 100 House Republican Members today is about protecting our Constitution,said Congresswoman Stefanik.The Constitution is clear; Election Officials and State Executives cannot change the people's presidential election process without the state legislature approving it. Additionally, it is unconstitutional to refuse to check signatures on mail-in ballots if the state law explicitly states that they must be checked. We are requesting that the Supreme Court carefully review the lawsuit and provide clarity to the American People, who are rightfully concerned about both the unconstitutional overreach from certain state officials and the integrity of the Presidential election. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
