Interview with Senator Ted Cruz on Judicial Activism and Economic Policies

Published | Video Starts at 02:19

There's a bill in the House. Can you, Is there a companion Bill? I think Mr. Grassley and Mr. Hawley. Yes. Is there an update on any of this? So Chuck Grassley has a bill to limit the jurisdiction to make clear that one single district judge doesn't have the authority to issue nationwide injunctions. I'm a co sponsor of that bill. I strongly support it. Here's the problem. To pass it in The Senate takes 60 votes. That would mean we would need at least seven Democrats. (02:19–02:27)
