The Letter

Subject Oppose S. 1206 and H.R. 1526 and Keep Court Relief for Everyone Harmed

When the government acts unlawfully against a large group of people, a court should be able to stop it for all of them. Two bills would narrow that power.

H.R. 1526, the No Rogue Rulings Act, passed the House 219 to 213 in April 2025. It would bar a district judge from blocking a policy for anyone but the parties and the members of a certified class action. S. 1206, the Judicial Relief Clarification Act, goes further: no court could issue any order, including one setting aside an unlawful rule, that protects people outside the case or a certified class.

A class action has to be certified by a judge first, and many people harmed by an unlawful policy will never be part of one. The Supreme Court already narrowed nationwide injunctions in 2025.

Please oppose S. 1206 and H.R. 1526.
