Restoring Judicial Separation of Powers Act
The Restoring Judicial Separation of Powers Act redirects certain federal appeals to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit (D.C. Circuit) instead of the Supreme Court, including cases involving federal agencies, constitutional challenges, or executive actions. It creates a new "multi-circuit panel" of 13 judges (one from each federal appeals court) to review these cases, requiring a 70% supermajority vote to rule a federal law unconstitutional. The bill also transfers cases seeking nationwide injunctions against federal laws to the D.C. Circuit and mandates written explanations for court reversals. These changes directly affect federal courts, government agencies, and parties challenging federal policies or regulations.
