OPINION OP THE COURT
SLOVITER, Circuit Judge.
I
This is an action instituted by all thirteen Republican members of the New Jersey State Senate and certain of their constituents against most of the Democratic members of the Senate. Plaintiffs allege that their federal and state constitutional rights were infringed when, pursuant to the Rules of the Senate, debate on two bills pending before the Senate was cut off by the defendants. The district court granted defendants’ motion for summary judgment and dismissed the action. 493 F.Supp. 381 (D.N.J.1980). We affirm.
