U.S. Senator Ted Cruz, a Republican from Texas and member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, along with Democratic Senator Mazie Hirono from Hawaii, has successfully passed bipartisan legislation in the Senate. The Federal Judicial Stabilization Act aims to make temporary district judgeships permanent in Texas and other locations. This bill now awaits the President's signature.
Senator Cruz emphasized the importance of stability in the court system for Texans, stating, “Texans need to know their court system is reliable and consistent. My bipartisan legislation takes a temporary judgeship in Texas and makes it permanent so your access to justice no longer depends on unpredictable annual appropriation fights.”
The passage of this act marks a significant step towards ensuring more stable judicial appointments across various districts.
