Judge blocks Trump’s birthright citizenship restrictions in third ruling since high court decision
UNITED STATES, JUL 26 – U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin upheld a nationwide injunction against Trump's order, citing constitutional precedent and financial impacts on states, marking the third such court block.
- On Friday, U.S. District Judge Leo Sorokin issued a ruling preventing the Trump administration from terminating birthright citizenship across the country for children born to parents residing in the U.S. unlawfully.
- The ruling follows a June Supreme Court decision and ongoing lawsuits that argue the 14th Amendment, ratified in 1868, guarantees citizenship to all born in the U.S.
- Judge Sorokin joined other courts in upholding a nationwide injunction granted to over a dozen states, which argued Trump's order threatened essential funding for health services contingent on citizenship.
- Sorokin stated that the evidence does not justify concluding that a more limited alternative could sufficiently safeguard the plaintiffs, and he upheld the determination that the order is unconstitutional at this stage.
- The case is expected to move quickly to the Supreme Court, which will ultimately decide the constitutional question and could redefine presidential powers over immigration.
