It’s different from ex post facto, but
The state can not pass laws that alter existing contracts or refuse to enforce them. That’s very explicitly prohibited under the contracts clause.
Very much unconstitutional
- mullingitover 2y ago> The state can not pass laws that alter existing contracts or refuse to enforce them. "Right to work" laws would seem to be a counterexample here - states are permitted to jump in and put their thumbs on the scale in a contract between a debtor (the employer) and the union.
