Barrett, Jackson spar in birthright citizenship case opinions
- On Friday, June 27, 2025, the Supreme Court decided Trump v. CASA by a 6-3 vote, restricting the authority of federal courts to block executive orders across the entire country through nationwide injunctions.
- This decision arose from President Trump's attempt to end birthright citizenship through an executive order, which several lower courts blocked as unconstitutional.
- Justice Amy Coney Barrett authored the majority opinion, arguing the Judiciary lacks unbridled authority to enforce executive compliance, citing the Judiciary Act of 1789.
- Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented, cautioning that the ruling could encourage the Executive branch to behave more like a monarch and weaken constitutional principles, emphasizing that all individuals, including the President, must abide by the law.
- The ruling limits judicial oversight of executive actions, which may alter the distribution of authority among government branches and influence how broad presidential policies are contested in the future.
