Fowler urges religious conservatives to oppose Haslam’s planned veto on Vanderbilt bill NASHVILLE — A politically influential conservative group is urging supporters to flood Gov. Bill Haslam’s phone lines in opposition to Haslam’s planned veto of a bill aimed at pressuring Vanderbilt University to drop an anti-discrimination policy affecting campus groups.
SCOTUS Process from now to June:
1. By the end of the day today or tomorrow, the Justices will take a preliminary vote to understand where each justice stands on the Constitutionality of Obamacare. There will be a majority and a minority group.
2. In both groups, each Justice will write their own opinions and arguments down and give their argument and opinion to the most senior Justice in their group.
3. In both groups the senior Justice will designate one Justice to represent the voice of the group.
4. The opinion and the argument of that Justice will be passed around that Justice's group, and it will be tweaked and edited before becoming either the majority group statement or the minority group statement.
5. Once the two groups have their statements completed, the majority will first present their view with the intent of convincing Justices in the minority group to change their stance.
6. The minority group will then have a rebuttal added to their original opinion they believe counters the points and the perspectives of the majority group. Once that is finalized, they will present their rebuttal with the intent of persuading Justices in the majority group to change their stance.
7. The majority group then will craft an edited version of their original position, this time providing counter points to the minority rebuttal and adding any additional points to their argument with the intent of persuading Justices in the minority group to change their stance.
8. Once the final appeal by the majority group is made, a second vote is taken and it is on the result of that second vote the final ruling of the court will be made.
There will be a lot of experts cautioning anyone from predicting how the Supreme Court will rule based on the questions or points made during the hearing by certain Justices. As you can see, there is ample opportunity for minds to change and for stances to switch. No one will really know until June what is going to happen.
