The U.S. Supreme Court declined on Jan. 24 to hear a legal challenge by Republican lawmakers to COVID-19-related proxy voting rules for House members that were set by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).
The rules, which were set up in May 2020, allow members of the House to serve as proxies for colleagues in isolation due to COVID-19, the illness caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, or who otherwise aren’t able to cast votes on the floor.
