I'm going to e-mail and call my Rep., however, I don't think this resolution will work. It may pass, alright, but it won't work. Only a Constitutional amendment will have the power to make the Supreme Court do anything.

This isn't what needs to happen, though. The Constitution needs to be enforced, not amended. With these justices looking to foreign court rulings, they are by simple fact of law, violating their oath to uphold the Constitution as the supreme rule of law. These justices need to be impeached. Any justice that makes any ruling by looking at a foreign law or court should be removed from the bench.

Congress needs to step up.

I think Article III Sec. 2, 2nd paragraph can be used by the Congress if they will do so to define somethings such that the Courts are limited in their scope....

I agree with you, these jokers need to be held accountable to their oaths.

Interestingly enough their oath does not require them to "uphold" the constitution, believe it or not.

Their oath however should be modified. It is part of the US Code not the constitution and therefore can be modified by Congress.
