## Summary

**This bill would sharply curb federal district courts' power to issue nationwide injunctions by confining injunctions to the parties in the case or to the issuing court's district.** It bars district courts from entering temporary or preliminary injunctions that extend beyond the named parties or the geographic bounds of the court. - Federal agencies and national rules: A single district court could not block a federal rule nationwide. Any injunction would halt enforcement only for the named parties or within that court's district. - States and private plaintiffs: States, businesses, or individuals could win injunctions that affect only their case or their district, not the whole country. - District courts and judicial practice: The measure curtails broad, nationwide judicial remedies by adding a statutory rule that overrides other laws that might allow broader relief.
