“House Democrats have filed 8 different briefs in court exposing both the illegality and the widespread harm of the Administration’s attacks on our people and our institutions. Trump is losing in court every day and we are beating him. Americans demoralized by the ceaseless authoritarianism of the Trump Administration need to know this.” – Congressman Jamie Raskin

I first met Rep. (and Constitutional scholar!) Raskin before I ran for office and I was just as impressed then as I am now. As we navigate this hard time when it sometimes feels like our system isn’t holding, I’m grateful for his leadership as the senior-most Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee. 

Although Democrats are fighting back every way we know how, I want to highlight what’s happening in the courts, where many of the President’s actions are being stopped. As an engineer, I like data, so here are the facts: 

* Over 300 lawsuits have been filed challenging this Administration’s actions.

* Courts have issued over 170 orders blocking the Administration’s illegal and unconstitutional actions.


For example, in the last week alone, judges have: 

* Ordered the Administration to restore AmeriCorps and its funding.

* Blocked the resumption of deportations under the Alien Enemies Act.

* Ordered the Administration to reinstate fired employees at the Department of Education.

* Blocked the cancelation of student visas and blocked the President’s attempt to stop Harvard from enrolling students from other countries.

* Extended a freeze on the Administration’s mass firings at 22 agencies.

As the Administration continues to flood the airwaves with reckless and dangerous pronouncements and actions, it’s critical that we don’t lose track of the challenges they’re having enacting their agenda. All is NOT well and we’ll keep fighting with every tool in our toolkit. But as my friend, Jamie, said it’s important for Democrats to know that “Trump is losing in the court every day and we are beating him.”

There's work to be done, 

Chrissy
