'This is a blatant affront to our system of checks and balances and must be stopped,' said Kamala Harris.
Americans should be"deeply troubled" by a new bid from the Trump administration to stop federal courts from blocking its hardline immigration policies with nationwide injunctions, California Senator and 2020 Democratic hopeful Kamala Harris warned Sunday.
Pence shared the Trump administration's plans to get the issue before the Supreme Court during an address at the Federalist Society's Seventh Annual Executive Branch Review Conference on Thursday. He called for an end to "this era of judicial activism." "Studies show that there's not a single example of a nationwide injunction in the first 175 years of our nation's history," Pence said. "It's imperative that we restore the historic tradition that district judges do not set policy for the whole nation."
Since the Trump administration took office, however, district courts have demonstrated the full power of such injunctions. The government has seen its efforts to impose a number of hardline policies, including its travel ban affecting predominantly Muslim-majority countries and as its ban affecting transgender military members, thwarted by lower courts.
