I'm actually of the opinion that a newly passed law should go through the Supreme Court to ensure it is constitutional before it can be enacted, exactly for this sort of situation.
Same here. What’s the point of a Constitution barring certain laws if those laws can take effect and ruin peoples’ lives before the law is actually struck down?
I am also thinking that Congresspeople that vote to pass
blatantly unconstitutional tripe such as this should face stiff penalties, if not outright removal from office. A legislator that can’t even be bothered to know the basic laws of his or her jurisdiction has no business being a legislator.
