Issa Legislation to Stop Rogue Federal Judges Passes House Judiciary Committee

March 6, 2025

Issa also passes bill for new judgeships to end backlog in federal courts

 

WASHINGTON – Congressman Darrell Issa (CA-48), Senior Member of the Judiciary Committee and Chairman of its Subcommittee on Intellectual Property, Artificial Intelligence, and the Courts, has advanced two of his bills through the full Committee that are now on their way to the full House of Representatives.

Today’s votes approved Rep. Issa’s No Rogue Rulings Act and his Judges Act of 2025, which also gained bipartisan consensus.

“We have a major malfunction in one part of our federal judiciary: Judges who abuse their power with nationwide injunctions that target President Trump to stop him from advancing the policies the American people elected him to carry out. As of today, these rogue rulings are put on notice and soon should come to an end,” said Rep. Issa.

A bipartisan vote in the Committee also passed the Judges Act. Afterwards, Issa said: “Justice delayed is justice denied — and our current federal court backlog is denying our standard of justice every day. This proposal is fair, it does not advantage Republicans or Democrats, and that’s why it earned bipartisan support.”

Darrell Issa is the Representative of California’s 48th Congressional District, which encompasses the central and eastern parts of San Diego County and a portion of Riverside County, including the communities of Fallbrook, Valley Center, Ramona, Escondido, Santee, Lakeside, Poway, Temecula, Murrieta, and the mountain and desert areas of the San Diego-Imperial County line. Issa served as the Chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform from 2011-2015.
