A federal judge is set to evaluate the enforcement of an executive order by President Donald Trump that limits birthright citizenship. This comes after the U.S. Supreme Court curtailed the ability of judges to issue nationwide injunctions against such policies. The Trump administration argues that the plaintiffs in this case, who are noncitizen parents and expectant parents, possess immigration statuses too varied to form a single class action and that an injunction could disrupt the process required for obtaining relief.
A federal judge will consider on Thursday whether to prevent President Donald Trump's administration from enforcing his executive order limiting birthright citizenship.
Trump's administration counters that the three noncitizens parents and expectant parents seeking to serve as lead plaintiffs have immigration statuses that are too different to be able to pursue a single class action together.
An injunction at this time would 'short circuit' the usual lengthier process required for them to obtain relief.
