No Rogue Rulings Act of 2025

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. BELL. Mr. Speaker, I rise today not just as a Member of Congress but as the son of a police officer and as someone who spent nearly two decades working in the justice system as a public defender, defense attorney, judge, and as a prosecutor. I know what it means to uphold the law, and I know what it looks like when the rule of law is under attack.

This bill is not about judicial efficiency or fairness; it is about power, raw, political power. The people who once cheered nationwide injunctions when they served their agenda now want to eliminate them because judges had the audacity to hold this administration accountable.

It is a direct assault on judicial independence and many of my Republican colleagues know it, but too many won't say it out loud for fear of political retribution or a primary financed by Elon Musk. This is not conservative, it is not constitutional, and history will remember.

Mr. Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote ``no.''
