Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) spotlighted the issue with federal district judges ruling against the Trump administration’s deportation efforts, arguing judges’ use of nationwide injunctions cannot be used on a national scale.

Hawley argued that while federal judges do have the power to issue injunctions to force specific parties to take a certain action, a power that is granted to them through Article III of the Constitution, the injunctions can only be issued “to the parties in front of them” and not the entire nation as has been seen with judges’ injunctions against the Trump administration.
