The State of Texas doesn't want to comply with a federal statute about providing pregnant employees with reasonable accommodations, so it asked a federal judge to declare Congress invalid. He agreed, finding the entire 2023 federal appropriations to be void, but limiting his relief to just the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act.
This is what counts as "law" in 2024.
