The Supreme Court has altered how birthright citizenship policies can be challenged in court. The ruling, authored by conservative Justice Amy Coney Barrett, limits the judiciary’s power to issue nationwide injunctions against presidential directives.
What Happened: The Supreme Court’s 6-3 decision, announced on Friday, impacts the enforcement of birthright citizenship policies. The ruling restricts judges’ ability to block President Donald Trump’s policies across the nation, although it does not immediately enforce his directive on birthright citizenship, according to a Reuters report.
