President Trump is seeking a Supreme Court decision on the legality of federal courts' use of universal injunctions, which have thwarted his immigration policy executive orders. Specifically, the case concerns his order ending automatic citizenship for children born in the U.S. to non-citizens. Trump's legal team argues that these injunctions exceed judges' powers and hinder policy implementation. The pushback from the courts has been significant enough that the Justice Department noted a rise in such injunctions since the Trump Administration began. A ruling in favor would bolster Trump's immigration policy efforts significantly.
The Trump Administration argues that universal injunctions exceed the constitutional authority of individual judges, disrupting the government's ability to implement immigration policy.
This pivotal Supreme Court case addresses not just Trumpâs birthright citizenship order but also the broader issue of lower courts issuing universal injunctions.
The Justice Department claims universal injunctions have become epidemic, significantly impacting the Trump Administration's immigration policy implementation since 2017.
Trumpâs legal team is not asking for a review of the citizenship order's constitutionality, but rather to limit the powers of lower court judges.
