President Trump on Wednesday wrote on social media the Supreme Court should "fix" the practice of district judges issuing orders that block policies nationwide.

Summary

Trump has intensified his opposition to nationwide injunctions, calling for Congress and the Supreme Court to limit district courts’ power to block federal policies nationwide.

These injunctions have repeatedly halted Trump’s second-term initiatives, including attempts to end birthright citizenship and deport migrants under a 1789 law.

Trump’s administration argues that these orders undermine executive authority and seeks permanent relief to restrict their use.

The Supreme Court has expressed concerns but has not yet ruled on the issue.
