Ranking Member Johnson's Opening Statement
The case that will come before the Supreme Court this week — Moore v. Harper — embodies the crossroads that we confront as a country. The obscure, strained interpretation of the Constitution that the petitioners are promoting in this case may very well attract the attention and the votes of several Supreme Court justices, if not a majority.
