It seemed to me that the whole point of Congress' act was to get the federal court system to review all of the data: that which was included, that which was excluded, and that which is new.

It amazes me that that is being refused.

There is something rotten in Florida and in this case.

Its the whole judicial system that is out of control. Congress needs to reign in the ability of these judges to rule on the constitutionality of their acts. They should limit the juridiction to determine the constitutionality of any act of congress to ONLY the Supreme Court of the United States. These lower court judges should have no business questioning the acts of congress.

The considered legislation passed by 535 elected representatives and the president of the united states, all of whom have sworn to uphold and defend the constitution of the United States, should not be questioned by some low level District Court Judge.

IMO the Judge is in contempt of Congress for refusing to do a de-Novo review. He should be impeached immediately. Congress needs to send a message that its orders will not be disregarded by an out of control judiciary.
