RE: Texas v. Yellen, No. 22-10560 (set for argument April 3, 2023)
Dear Mr. Cayce:
I write regarding two developments since this case was fully briefed.
First, on January 18, the government sought rehearing en banc of the Sixth
Circuit’s decision in Kentucky v. Yellen, 54 F.4th 325 (6th Cir. 2022), which incor-
rectly held the Offset Provision to be unenforceable “[a]s a matter of statutory
interpretation,” id. at 347. On March 13, the Sixth Circuit directed the plaintiff
States to respond to the rehearing petition by March 27.
Second, on January 20, the Eleventh Circuit decided West Virginia v. Depart-
ment of the Treasury, 59 F.4th 1124 (11th Cir. 2023), holding that the plaintiff States
established jurisdiction over their challenge to the Offset Provision and that the
provision is unconstitutional. The government has petitioned for rehearing en
banc of the Eleventh Circuit’s decision.
Sincerely,
/s/ Daniel Winik
Daniel Winik
