Join RNLA for a live discussion with the Counsel for Petitioners David Thompson and Law Professor Derek Muller on one of the most important Supreme Court cases of this term, Moore v. Harper. This webinar will take a deep dive into the independent state legislature theory and how it can be applied to ensure judicial activists cannot interfere with free and fair elections.
