The Trump administration is fighting for the citizenship of birthright in the US Supreme Court. To date, every court has considered Trump’s executive order issued by his administration a day, has stopped it. But that is intact.
President Trump claims that the citizenship of birth rights is unconstitutional, it is widely regarded as a refrigerator theory because the Supreme Court ruled 127 years ago, and the decision was never bothered.
In fact, the 14th Amendment states: “All the people born in the United States or natural nature, and its jurisdiction, are citizens of the United States.” However, Trump has long argued that there is nothing like automated citizenship, at least not for all children born in the United States
Already, three federal judges from three different states have stopped Trump’s executive order, which shows the citizenship of birthright, and three separate appeals courts have refused to block these judicial orders. Judge John Cofinor, who appointed Reagan in the state of Washington, was the first judge to stop Trump’s executive order, calling it “clearly unconstitutional”.
But on Thursday, three separately – but in the same -filing – the Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to reduce the lower court orders, which apply nationwide, so that the administration can plan to enforce its new policy against the citizenship of birthright.
Stephen Yale Lohir, a retired professor of immigration law and co -author of immigration, said that the court could be willing to make a temporary request. But he added, “I think it will cause chaos and confusion as to who was involved in judicial decisions and if the matter is in favor of the Trump administration, it is likely to ban the citizenship of birthright.”
Interestingly, the filing of the Supreme Court of the Trump administration spends a lot of time on the authority of the lower court judges, as in this case, the question of the citizenship of the birthright is far more. The reason for this may be that some judges of the court have often complained about such nationwide decisions, and instead of dealing with the question of the citizenship of birth rights, where the administration faces a great war, it may be thought that it has a better attack on the country than a nationwide attack.
“At least, they have an indication that they have a better opportunity on a restraining question. [constitutional question] Elijah Somn, a professor at the Antonin Scale Law School, said Birthright Citizenship. “
He said that when the Republican -powered states were attacking the policies of the Biden and Obama administration, they used a nationwide order, and did not interfere with the Supreme Court at this time. Professor Yale-Wahir says the middle ground may be for the Supreme Court to allow the Trump administration to start its plans to eliminate the minimum birthright citizenship.
“The Supreme Court can partially restrict orders, perhaps not to the extent that the Trump administration wants, but [to the extent] This will allow the Trump administration to claim political victory. “
Before any decision, however, the judges will seek a response from the other side.
