I understand the concern about limiting the authority of district courts to issue injunctive relief, as outlined in H.R. 1526, the NORRA of 2025. This bill would prohibit federal district courts from issuing orders providing broad injunctive relief, except in cases involving multiple states challenging executive branch actions, where a special three-judge panel could grant injunctions. While the stated intent may be to address the separation of powers, this legislation could have far-reaching consequences, potentially hindering the ability of individuals and organizations to seek timely and effective relief from the courts. It raises concerns about access to justice and the checks and balances inherent in our judicial system. I urge you to carefully consider the potential implications of this bill on the rights of citizens and the fundamental role of the judiciary as a co-equal branch of government. A balanced and independent judicial system is crucial to upholding the rule of law and protecting the rights and liberties enshrined in our Constitution. Before supporting such a measure, it is imperative to thoroughly examine its potential impact and ensure it does not undermine these vital principles.
