WASHINGTON − The Supreme Court voted to lift temporary blocks on President Donald Trump’s order ending birthright citizenship for the children of parents who were in the country temporarily or without legal authorization.
The court ruled 6-3 that District Court rulings temporarily blocking Trump’s order "likely exceed the equitable authority that Congress has granted to federal courts."
It was the first ruling in a day of important decisions. Major rulings related to President Donald Trump, LGBTQ+ schoolbooks and online porn will be released in one final decision drop on June 27.
The court's first ruling was over whether to allow Trump to enforce his changes to birthright citizenship while his new policy is being litigated. The ruling could make it harder for judges to block any of the president’s policies.
