Sessions: New 'Judicial Activism' Is 'Judicial Encroachment' on Executive Actions
By Bridget Johnson October 16, 2018

"Courts are ignoring limiting guardrails and are allowing unprecedented reviews of governmental operations," Sessions told the Heritage Foundation on Monday.

He argued that, since it's up to the secretary of Homeland Security, a federal court shouldn't be reviewing a discrimination lawsuit brought by multiple states against the Trump administration's decision to end Temporary Protected Status for immigrants from six countries.
