Perspectives
The House passed legislation to limit federal judges from issuing nationwide injunctions, which they argue is a response to increasing judicial actions against the Trump administration.
Republicans claim that the judiciary is acting beyond its scope by issuing these injunctions, while Democrats counter that judges are enforcing the law against executive overreach.
The bill aims to prevent 'judge shopping' and ensure that decisions impact only the parties involved in cases, although its future in the Senate remains uncertain.
