House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan is asking top House appropriators to add language to the appropriations bills to clamp down on out-of-control federal judges.
In a letter to Appropriations Committee Chair Tom Cole (R-Okla.), Jordan urged House Republicans to make a move to support Trump.

The Ohio Republican also said he wants language to funding for the issuance and enforcement of nationwide injunctions. That would include the use of court resources to compel compliance, fines or contempt proceedings related to such injunctions.
“These steps would reinforce the proper limits of judicial power and ensure that taxpayer resources support a judiciary that respects its constitutional role,” Jordan wrote.
Recently Rep. Dave Joyce (R-Ohio), said that Hpuse Republicans are looking for ways to put the brakes on these out-of-control judges.
“I’m looking forward to working closely on issues pertaining to our nation’s judicial system this Congress,” Joyce said in a statement. “Like [Jordan], I agree that the security of our justice system must remain a top priority throughout the appropriations process.”
