Some members of the committee said such a ban, proposed two months after a prominent conservative activist was caught meeting with a famous white supremacist, might be a “slippery slope” or too vague.

We’d have to change our Bill of Rights before a law like that wouldn’t be stricken by the courts.
We’re not talking about the government limiting associations, this is a private organization trying to limit what it’s members can do, which is perfectly legal and not even out of the ordinary. As far as I’m aware, the bill of rights is immaterial to this situation, considering we’re talking about private people interacting, something which you have no right to force upon people aside from protected classes.
