Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, a Trump ally, achieved a significant legal victory against the Biden administration, as a federal court ruled the $1.7 trillion omnibus spending bill unconstitutional. The bill, passed at the end of 2022 by a Pelosi-led Congress, was challenged by Paxton on the grounds that it was passed unlawfully, with half of the U.S. House of Representatives members absent and through proxy voting, a method criticized under the pretext of COVID-19. This landmark decision not only strikes down the spending bill but also raises concerns over the legality of other labor-related laws passed in the same package, including a pregnant worker protection law.
A Texas federal judge’s decision to block a pregnancy bias law he said passed without a quorum in Congress raises the threat of further legal action attacking other labor-related laws approved through the same spending package. https://t.co/RDX0uXSoky
