#JudgeJackson just had to explain to @SenTomCotton that when you sue the federal government you have to name an OFFICER of the federal government, not "the government" itself.
This is how Tom Price ended up going from being a plaintiff to a named defendant in THE SAME LAWSUIT.

In 2014, Tom Price was a GOP member of the House when then-Speaker Boehner sued the Obama Admin over the ACA.
The case was still pending when Trump appointed Price to be his first HHS Secretary, which means the lawsuit became "House vs. Price"

In fact, the case technically went from being "House v. Burwell" to "House v. Price" "House v. Azar" and may have even been "House v. Wright" for a few days depending on the timing:

Senator Blackburn's appearances in today & yesterday's SCOTUS hearings delve into a host of culture war issues out of the blue. It’s worth interrogating the origins of these attacks on #JudgeJackson 🧵nytimes.com/2022/03/21/us/…
Blackburn has close ties with a right-wing culture war group that calls itself the “Independent Women’s Forum,” which backed controversial Trump nominees to the Court and has touted its ability to appear neutral.
This week, True North released a report highlighting talking points IWLC, IWF’s legal center, sent to GOP Senators in advance of the hearing. truenorthresearch.org/2022/03/dark-m…
Wondering where the misleading narrative about #JudgeJackson pushed by Sen. Hawley yesterday — re criminal sentences — comes from? Spoiler: it has dark money origins 🧵
It appears this line of attack originated via the American Accountability Foundation, an outfit with clear links to Conservative Partnership Institute that was launched in 2021 to oppose Biden’s nominees.
It was then promoted in a separate “report” by the Article III Project (A3P), another right-wing outfit that received almost all its known funding from the dark money Concord Fund in 2019.
