GOP forced to strike policy weakening judges' powers from Trump bill
An effort by Senate Republicans to restrict the power of federal judges to block Trump administration policies with preliminary injunctions has been ruled ineligible to remain in President Donald Trump’s tax and spending bill.
The ruling, delivered by the Senate parliamentarian on Sunday, was the latest blow to Republicans from the nonpartisan official tasked with refereeing what is and is not allowed under the filibuster-skirting process of budget reconciliation being used for the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
