The Constitution Restoration Act of 2005 (originally "of 2004") was filed on March 3, 2005 by Senator Richard Shelby (R-AL) and Congressman Robert Aderholt (R-AL). It is Senate bill S 520 and House of Representatives bill H.R. 1070.

The central statement of the bill is that, after passing, the Supreme Court shall not have jurisdiction to review, by appeal, writ of certiorari, or otherwise, any matter to the extent that relief is sought against an entity of Federal, State, or local government, or against an officer or agent of Federal, State, or local government (whether or not acting in official or personal capacity), concerning that entity's, officer's, or agent's acknowledgment of God as the sovereign source of law, liberty, or government. In other words, the bill would limit the power of the federal judiciary specifically in religious liberty cases. The bill also states that judges or other court officials that listen to cases that meet said criteria are to be impeached and convincted.

The introduction of this bill is generally viewed as an attempt to further the cause of Dominionism. These bills were also introduced in 2004, but languished in committee and were reintroduced at the beginning of the current congressional session.
