SCOTUS Just Assured That the U.S. Will Embark on a Terrifying Experiment in Mass Statelessness
Briefly

A family in El Paso faces uncertainty after their daughter, born in the U.S., is flagged for documentation review due to her parents' undocumented status. Following the Supreme Court's ruling in Trump v. CASA, federal judges lost essential power to issue nationwide injunctions, leading to increased confusion and fear among undocumented families. The court's decision could leave children like their daughter without formal recognition and subject to legal invisibility, as parents hesitate to seek clarification about their children's status for fear of detention.
The consequences of this ruling are significant. Families like the one described face potential legal invisibility for their children, resulting from a government decision that disregards their existence.
The Supreme Court's decision in Trump v. CASA ultimately strips federal judges of the power to issue nationwide injunctions, intensifying the uncertainty for many families living in the shadows.
