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.
- In a third nationwide decision on Friday, the judge blocked President Donald Trump’s birthright citizenship order, joining previous rulings since the Supreme Court limited injunctions.
- The Trump administration argued children are not subject to U.S. jurisdiction because their parents lack 'permanent domicile' and 'primary allegiance', recalling the order signed on his first day in January.
- The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals said a nationwide injunction was necessary, with the majority quoting `complete relief`, highlighting judicial reasoning.
- So far, no appeal has been filed by the administration, and the nationwide block is now in effect.
- The Supreme Court’s eventual decision could redefine presidential power over immigration and judicial review of constitutional protections.
