Bill Summary

A BILL To reform the Supreme Court of the United States, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill proposes significant reforms to the U.S. judicial system, primarily focused on shifting key judicial responsibilities from the Supreme Court to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. The bill would establish a new multi-circuit panel of 13 judges, randomly selected from different circuit courts, which would have jurisdiction over cases involving the federal government, constitutional and statutory interpretations, and executive orders. To declare an Act of Congress unconstitutional or invalid, the panel would require a supermajority vote of at least 70% of its judges. The bill also introduces restrictions on nationwide injunctions by requiring such cases to be transferred to the D.C. Circuit Court and mandates more transparency in judicial decision-making by requiring written explanations for court reversals to be published online. Additionally, the bill modifies existing laws to route appeals and final decisions that would traditionally go to the Supreme Court to instead be heard by the D.C. Circuit Court. These changes aim to redistribute judicial power, increase judicial accountability, and potentially reduce the Supreme Court's workload by redirecting many types of cases to the newly empowered multi-circuit panel.
