Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La.
"Democrats need to get a grip. In this country, the American people decide the next president—not the courts and not the Congress," the spokesperson said.
According to the Axios report, Raskin referenced legislation he introduced in 2022 with Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla. that would allow the Justice Department to sue to keep candidates off the ballot under the 14th Amendment.
"We are going to revise it in light of the Supreme Court's decision," Raskin told the outlet. He suggested that the bill would be paired with a resolution declaring Jan. 6 an "insurrection" and that those involved "engaged in insurrection."
Trump is facing a number of federal charges related to the 2020 election, but he has not been charged with insurrection.

"The Court today needed to resolve only a single question: whether an individual State may keep a Presidential candidate found to have engaged in insurrection off its ballot. The majority resolves much more than the case before us. Although federal enforcement of Section 3 is in no way at issue, the majority announces novel rules for how that enforcement must operate," the three wrote.

"It reaches out to decide Section 3 questions not before us, and to foreclose future efforts to disqualify a Presidential candidate under that provision," the three said.
Rep. Raskin's office did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
