In this episode of The Weekly Congressional Report, we tackle one of the most quietly explosive bills moving through Congress right now: H.R. 1526 – The No Rogue Rulings Act of 2025.
This bill would strip federal district courts of the power to issue nationwide injunctions—even when a federal law or executive action is ruled unconstitutional. Instead, sweeping relief would be restricted to rare cases involving multiple states and a randomly selected three-judge panel.
Supporters call it a necessary check on so-called “judicial activism.” Opponents warn it’s a direct assault on judicial independence, engineered to shield executive overreach from meaningful court intervention.
Brian Barnes is joined by AI co-hosts Avery and Iris to break down what this bill actually does, what’s buried in the Judiciary Committee’s report, and why this quiet procedural shift could reshape the balance of power in America.
We’ll dig into the legal mechanics, the political motivations, and the historical echoes—because when courts lose the power to protect everyone, democracy takes a hit.
This isn’t just a legal technicality. It’s a constitutional alarm bell.
