U.S. District Court Judge James Wesley Hendrix ruled that Nancy Pelosi violated the Constitution with the passing of the federal budget based on an unmet quorum. Multiple reports confirm that members were allowed to vote for the bill without having to be physically in attendance at the Capitol when the budget was officially adopted on December 23.
The budget passed with a vote of 225-201. Former President Donald Trump nominated Judge Hendrix in January 2019. The U.S. Senate confirmed his nomination later that year in July 2019.
