3rd Case US v. Washington. A state law in Washington State gives (a presumption of) workers comp claims to federal workers working in a fed plutonium plant doing nuclear stuff.
Unanimous Court rules that the state law violates the Supremacy Clause, and thus must fail. By Breyer.— Elie Mystal (@ElieNYC) June 21, 2022
Sorry, for those playing along at home… if a state law cannot PROTECT workers at a fed facility… then surely a state law cannot PROHIBIT people at a fed facility from providing, oh I don’t know, ABORTIONS.
