Trump Appeals to Supreme Court to End Birthright Citizenship

The Trump administration has urged the Supreme Court to lift nationwide injunctions blocking its executive order to end birthright citizenship. Lower courts have repeatedly ruled the policy unconstitutional, citing over a century of legal precedent under the 14th Amendment. Federal judges in Maryland and Massachusetts criticized the order, calling it a violation of established law. The administration argues that nationwide injunctions have hampered executive authority and seeks a ruling to limit their scope. The Supreme Court is expected to expedite the case, setting a tight briefing schedule for challengers to respond.
