They can impeach a sitting judge which basically means they can override any judicial decision they want by impeaching enough of the justices that made it, and then having the President appoint ones that will make the opposite decision. They determine who sits on the federal courts and therefore send a message of what is acceptable and what is not. They can regulate the federal judiciary so they can change the number of Justices on the Supreme Court and other courts, though they can not change the judges pay. They can restructure the lesser courts which if you have ever been at a job that has restructured you will know it can make quite a difference. They also control the purse strings on the judiciary and unless they want to make their decision from a cave, or an abandoned warehouse, can influence things. In short Congress chooses not to control the judiciary for their own reasons which are probably political in nature. Jay,
