According to BlockBeats, critics point out that there is a provision in Trump's tax and spending bill that would weaken the power of U.S. judges when the government ignores court orders. The bill stipulates that federal courts cannot enforce contempt sanctions unless the plaintiff has posted a bond, which rarely occurs in cases against the government.
The federal courts are the main check on Trump during his second term. If the bill becomes law, judges will be unable to enforce contempt orders. Although no judges have issued contempt orders yet, several judges have indicated that the Trump administration may face contempt of court charges.
The House passed the bill by a one-vote margin, with no support from Democrats, and the bill has been submitted to the Senate. Several Republicans indicated they would seek to amend the bill, and 21 Democrats wrote to the Speaker requesting the removal of that provision.
