WASHINGTON—The U.S. House of Representatives passed the No Rogue Rulings Act (NORRA) of 2025, Representative Darrell Issa’s bill that would limit the power of district judges to issue nationwide injunctions. House Republican Conference Chairwoman Lisa McClain (R-Mich.) and Rep. Issa (R-Calif.) released the following statements: “House Republicans prevented activist judges from stalling the American people’s agenda,” Chairwoman McClain said. “Rep. Issa’s bill ensures rogue judges can’t block the lawful exercise of executive power. We upheld the constitutional authority of checks and balances and protected the integrity of our democracy.” “There is a major malfunction of judicial activism in our federal courts. Practically every week, another federal judge issues yet another nationwide injunction in yet another gambit to stop President Trump from exercising his Constitutional powers and carrying out the policies he promised the American people he would make a reality. This isn’t even close to a legal disagreement involving standing, statute, or precedent – it is the Trump Resistance in Robes. The No Rogue Rulings Act is the comprehensive solution we need to stop these abuses and ensure proper and appropriate balance in our federal courts,” Rep. Issa said. |
