Tim Moore Responds to SCOTUS Moore v. Harper Decision
Raleigh, NC – Today the Supreme Court of the United States issued their decision in the Moore v. Harper case.
NC House Speaker Tim Moore said, "Today the United States Supreme Court has determined that state courts may rule on questions of state law even if it has an impact on federal elections law. Ultimately, the question of the role of state courts in congressional redistricting needed to be settled and this decision has done just that. I am proud of the work we did to pursue this case to the nation's highest court."
He continued, "Fortunately the current Supreme Court of North Carolina has rectified bad precedent from the previous majority, reaffirming the state constitutional authority of the NC General Assembly. We will continue to move forward with the redistricting process later this year."
