but it's unclear whether the law would pass constitutional muster in the eyes of the very courts it tries to regulate.
Congress defines the role of the federal courts. Every law they pass should have a clause that exempts it from federal judicial review. They have just been cowards in the past and given more authority to the judiciary. Time to take it back since these judges are obviously to corrupt and evil to do their jobs.

public religious displays as constitutional rights not subject to review by federal courts.
While you're at it, legislate four drumsticks on each chicken, will ya?

They also argue that the bill violates the separation of church and state (search) doctrine, but supporters say the legislation is needed because too many federal judges have taken to activist interpretations.The "doctrine" no longer obtains, Dubya wrote a letter to a Baptist Minister in Danbury, CT telling him that the original letter from Jefferson was never intended to allow the executive to write law and judicial precedent.
All a big misunderstanding.
