The U. S. House of Representatives has created a committee to no longer allow short members of congress to be seated after an election, unless they are taller than 6 feet. Shorty Smith wins his election in his district, but standing only 5 feet 5 inches tall, congress votes 307-116 to not seat Shorty Smith. Shorty Smith, obviously outraged, files a petition with the Supreme Court to force congress to seat him. Can Congress keep Shorty Smith from taking his seat by merely voting against him?
