The Supreme Court granted President Trump a significant victory by limiting lower courts' power to block his executive order on birthright citizenship. In a 6-3 ruling, the Court sidestepped the constitutional question regarding citizenship rights of children born to undocumented immigrants. The majority opinion emphasized that courts should not overreach in their judgments against the executive branch. This ruling could lead to state-by-state challenges on the matter and allows Trump's order to potentially take effect in many states, barring further legal action.
When a court concludes that the executive branch has acted unlawfully, the answer is not for the court to exceed its power, too.
This case is very important, he said, referring to his executive order that could reshape the country's immigration framework.
