Introduced in House
The bill was officially filed and given a number. It now enters the legislative queue.
The House passed the 'No Rogue Rulings Act' (H.R. 1526), which mirrors the Court Shopping Deterrence Act by requiring that appeals of nationwide injunctions go directly to the Supreme Court. The bill aims to stop single district judges from blocking federal policies across the entire country.
In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court limited the use of nationwide injunctions, ruling that they likely exceed the authority granted to federal courts. This judicial outcome aligns with the goals of the Court Shopping Deterrence Act by centralizing the power to block federal laws in the High Court.
While the House advanced legislation to clamp down on nationally binding court orders, some Republicans expressed concern that the measure strips individual rights. The bill includes a mechanism where rulings from three-judge panels can be appealed directly to the Supreme Court.
