| Court | U.S. Supreme Court |
|---|---|
| Citation | 541 U.S. 600 (2004) |
| Date decided | 2004 |
Issues
Whether a Congressional statute proscribing bribery of state, local, and tribal officials of entities that receive at least $10,000 in federal funds is a valid exercise of congressional authority under Article I of the Constitution.
Rule
The court will not presume the unconstitutionality of federal criminal statutes lacking an explicit provision of a jurisdictional hook, and will apply a means-end rationality test.
