Calls for Congress to Curb Supreme Court's Death Penalty Power
Original: Congress Should Strip the Supreme Court of Its Power to Greenlight Blocked Executions

The piece contends the Court has increasingly intervened in capital cases to override stays, and urges lawmakers to remove that power through legislation. The debate touches on separation of powers and the Court's role in death penalty litigation.
Why now: Ongoing controversy over the Supreme Court's intervention in blocked capital cases is drawing criticism and debate over judicial power.
