That’s so weird. I could have sworn the Supremem Court just ruled that lower courts were NOT allowed to to block things that affected the whole country. That that EXCEEDED their authority. How ODD. What a strange thing is happening right now 🧐

I should have been more clear, they can no longer implement temporary injunctions. These were used by judges to stop further action while the case was proceeding in their court.

Once the trial has been conducted and the judge makes a decision, they can decide that a nationwide law is not valid and therefore stop it's application everywhere.
