    On a lot of these anti-Trump injunctions, you’re starting to see a security bond of $1, exactly because of this.

    If the one sentence is the entire statutory language, I don’t see anything that removes the judge’s existing discretion to require a nominal token bond.

        It seems that an injunction with a token bond attached would still be enforceable under the proposed law.

        There doesn’t seem to be anything in the provision that requires the security bond to be substantial.
