“They respond not by urging the administration to stay on the right side of the law and the Constitution. No, they simply want to make it harder for anyone to hold this lawless administration accountable.”
“Mr. Speaker, the Trump administration is the most lawless in American history. That is why so many of his policies are being blocked through nationwide injunctions.”

“They respond not by urging the administration to stay on the right side of the law and the Constitution. No, they simply want to make it harder for anyone to hold this lawless administration accountable. This bill would prohibit district courts from issuing nationwide injunctions even when the policies they find unlawful or unconstitutional have nationwide effects. That would be as if Brown v. Board of Education applied only to Brown. To do so would mean that no one could ever effectively check any administration's power, and no administration could ever be held accountable. The President would be a real, not a would-be, dictator. This bill is a dangerous threat to the rule of law. This bill is not intended to curtail rogue judges from issuing rogue rulings. It is intended to enable a rogue administration to continue to violate the law.”
“Mr. Speaker, the Trump administration is the most lawless in American history. That is why so many of his policies are being blocked through nationwide injunctions. Republicans see this as evidence of some liberal plot among the judiciary, but the judges who have ruled against him, some appointed by such noted liberals as George Bush and Ronald Reagan, are not part of some grand conspiracy to stop the Trump agenda. They are following the law and the facts wherever they lead them. In case after case, the law and the facts are squarely against Donald Trump and his administration. Whether it be his efforts to rewrite the 14th Amendment to eliminate birthright citizenship or his scheme to deport immigrants without even the barest hint of due process, the courts have properly acted as a check on his power. How do Republicans respond?”
