Rep. Nick Langworthy called Friday’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling a “monumental victory” after the court voted 6-3 to limit the use of nationwide injunctions by federal judges.
In a statement issued from Washington, D.C., the congressman praised the decision for ending what he described as judicial overreach that has blocked federal policies.
“The Supreme Court has finally slammed the brakes on the outrageous practice of a single activist judge derailing the will of the American people,” Langworthy said. “No more will one judge in one district get to act like a super-legislator for the entire country.”
Langworthy added that the decision marks a return to constitutional balance and protects future presidents from being “handcuffed by unelected ideologues in robes.”
“This is a huge win for the rule of law, for our separation of powers, and for any future president who wants to govern,” he said.
