U.S. Representative Dusty Johnson (R-S.D.) voted in favor of the legislation. “In the past few decades, the number of nationwide injunctions that halt presidential actions has dramatically increased. A single district court judge should not have the kind of power to direct national policy,” said Johnson. “This bill ensures national court rulings are the result of a collaborative effort between multiple judges.” The No Rogue Rulings Act: Returns policy decisions to the democratically elected branches of government, Congress and the President, fostering a government that works for the people and preserves the rule of law. In truly national cases when two or more states located in different judicial districts challenge executive actions, a randomly selected three-judge panel may issue a nationwide injunction—but only after weighing the interest of justice, the risk of irreparable harm to non-parties, and the preservation of the Constitutional separation of powers. In such cases, the parties may appeal directly to the Supreme Court. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T00:33:40Z |
