The Supreme Court has ruled to end the widespread use of nationwide injunctions, a decision hailed as a major victory for the Constitution and the separation of powers.
This ruling limits judges from blocking executive actions across the entire country.
White House Counsel David Warrington stated that the decision restores the proper balance between the branches of government and strengthens the rule of law.
The Court’s ruling addresses the problem of lower court judges using nationwide injunctions to override presidential authority, especially during the Trump administration. These injunctions had often been used to halt President Trump’s policies.
Since Trump took office, many injunctions against his executive actions have come from just a few jurisdictions.
Of 40 such injunctions in his second term, 35 were issued by courts in California, Maryland, Massachusetts, Washington, and the District of Columbia, according to a White House press release.
The ruling allows the Trump Administration to move forward with key policy goals without being blocked nationwide by a single judge’s order.
Policies expected to advance include ending birthright citizenship, cutting sanctuary city funding, suspending refugee resettlement, freezing certain funds, and preventing taxpayer money from funding transgender surgeries.
President Trump called the decision a “monumental victory” for the Constitution and the rule of law. He criticized the injunctions as a threat to democracy, claiming that a few “radical left judges” were overruling the will of voters.
Attorney General Pam Bondi praised the ruling, saying Americans will finally see the policies they voted for without interference from what she called “rogue judges.”
CNN’s chief legal affairs correspondent Paula Reid called the ruling a “big win” for Trump, noting the justices agreed to limit judges’ power to block policies nationwide.
CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig described the decision as a significant win for the Trump Administration and the presidency.
Legal expert Jonathan Turley said the administration had good reason to celebrate, adding that district court judges had previously hampered the government’s work.
Senator John Kennedy criticized the concept of nationwide injunctions, stating that federal judges essentially “made up” this power because they disagreed with presidential or congressional actions.
MSNBC legal analyst Melissa Murray called it a “huge win” for the Trump Administration.
Major news outlets also recognized the ruling as a significant success for President Trump. The New York Times described it as a “major victory,” while NBC News called it a “major win” for the administration.
The New York Post referred to it as a “major win,” and Reuters reported the ruling as a “win for Trump.”
Politico summarized the event by saying the Supreme Court handed Trump a “major win” with its decision.
The ruling marks a turning point in how federal courts can intervene in presidential policies, reducing the reach of injunctions that have blocked national policies based on rulings from a single district court.
