Congressional Bill to Give U.S. Supreme Court Sole Authority to Adjudicate 14th Amendment, Section 3 Challenges to Presidential Candidates

U.S. Senator Thom Tillis (R-North Carolina) has introduced a bill that says the U.S. Supreme Court has sole authority to adjudicate challenges to the eligibility of presidential candidates relative to the Fourteenth Amendment, section 3.

That part of the bill is only one sentence.  See it here.  The bill also blocks federal funding for election administration for states that block presidential candidates from a ballot on section 3 grounds.

The bill does not yet have a number.

Congressional Bill to Give U.S. Supreme Court Sole Authority to Adjudicate 14th Amendment, Section 3 Challenges to Presidential Candidates — 10 Comments

  1. ONE MORE UNCONST BILL BY ONE MORE MORON USA SENATOR HACK

    SCOTUS HAS VERY LIMITED ORIGINAL JURIS 3-2

    14 AMDT DID NOT REPEAL 3-2

  2. LEGAL BILL-

    ENTIRE USA CT OF APPEALS IN DC HAVE ORIG JURIS OF ALL 14-3 CIVIL CASES ONLY

    APPELL JURIS TO SCOTUS

    ONE CASE SHOULD BE ENOUGH.

    SAME FOR MANY OTHER USA CONST AMDTS – EXCEPT 14 AM- 1/2/4

  3. The sole authority to define the meaning of 14-3 is CONGRESS, according to the Amendment ITSELF.

    It’s called ENABLING LEGISLATION.

    Right now, there is NO enabling legislation on this matter.

  4. “Congress shouldn’t punt this.”

    It looks like Tillis is doing just that, delegating away the explicit authority of Congress.

  5. WZ

    AGAIN- 28 USC 1331– USA DIST CT JURIS – NOW ABOUT 100 USA DIST CT DISTRICTS >> TO 11 USA CT APPS [3 JUDGE > ALL] >>> SCOTUS — POSSIBLE 4 COURTS

    TILLIS BILL 2 COURTS – IF DONE RIGHT

  6. DUE TO 2-1-2 — APPOINTED STATE PREZ ELECTORS — 12 AMDT — 14-3 CONNECTIONS AN OBVIOUS CASE SHOULD BE MADE THAT NOOOO STATE COURT SHOULD BE DOING ANY 14-3 CASE

    IE ONLY USA DIST CTS – 28-USC 1331 ABOVE — CASES ARISING UNDER USA CONST PARTS

  7. FEDS IN STATE ELECTIONS —

    1-4-1
    4-4 RFG
    14-2 / 15 / 17 / 19 / 24 / 26 AMDTS

    ALL DUE IN PART TO ANTI-DEMOCRACY MINORITY RULE GERRYMANDER STATE LEGIS IN ALL STATES SINCE 1776
