Summary

The court held that legislators who voted against a bill have standing to challenge its enactment when, assuming a constitutional supermajority requirement applies, their bloc had enough votes to defeat the bill. The alleged nullification of the bloc’s votes constitutes a particularized institutional injury, although it does not give each legislator individual standing. The court reversed the dismissal for lack of standing and remanded for further proceedings without reaching the merits of the constitutional challenge.
