The Blaze: Horowitz: Supreme Court voids state legislative authority over redistricting
Horowitz: Supreme Court voids state legislative authority over redistricting


Justice Kavanaugh and Justice Barrett, along with other liberal justices, have opened the floodgates for state judiciaries to tamper with legislative authority over election law. Despite the Supreme Court ruling that deems political gerrymandering cases as non-justiciable, the North Carolina Supreme Court struck down the legislative map. This undermines the plenary power of legislatures and allows for arbitrary judicial interference in elections. The result is an unclear standard and the potential for federal courts to decide election maps in the future. The decision ultimately favors the left's agenda.

Oklahoma Misspent Millions In COVID-19 Funds: Auditor
Oversight failures by state officials in Oklahoma resulted in the misallocation of over $29 million in federal pandemic relief funds, according to an audit report by the state's auditor. The biggest misallocation was $12.2 million in questioned costs related to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES). The audit also found issues with the Governor's Emergency Education Relief fund, the Emergency Rental Assistance Program, and the Stay In School Program.

A federal watchdog found that tens of billions of dollars may have been misspent in COVID-19 relief funding across the country. The report estimated that at least 17% of funds disbursed to potentially fraudulent actors. The COVID-EIDL program had an estimated fraud of over $136 billion, while the PPP program had an estimated fraud of $64 billion.

Medicaid Recipients Urged to Verify Eligibility Before Pandemic Subsidies Expire
Up to 15 million Medicaid beneficiaries could lose coverage as pandemic subsidies dry up. State officials urge eligible recipients to contact their state Medicaid office to maintain coverage amid plans to reduce Medicaid rolls. Some recipients ignore notices due to misinformation, while others are no longer eligible. State governments are utilizing various methods like social media, email, and partnerships with local businesses to communicate changes and protect coverage. Disenrolling ineligible individuals will allocate resources for those in need and reduce the taxpayers' burden. Eligibility can be determined through factors such as employment status and income. Ineligible individuals can seek coverage through other avenues like health insurance marketplaces or private policies. The Congressional Budget Office reports that although the pandemic subsidies will end, Medicaid enrollment and other subsidies will continue, with federal health care subsidies projected to total over $1.6 trillion annually by 2033.
