US EditionSupreme Court Limits Nationwide Injunctions Allowing Partial Enforcement of Trump Birthright Order
UNITED STATES, JUL 2 – The Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling restricts federal judges from issuing nationwide blocks on executive orders, allowing Trump's birthright citizenship order to partially take effect amid ongoing legal challenges.
- The U.S. Supreme Court limited lower courts' ability to block executive orders and allowed Trump's birthright citizenship order to take effect with a 30-day delay.
- This order aims to end automatic citizenship for children born in the U.S. to undocumented immigrants, reversing the broad application of the 14th Amendment's birthright principle.
- The order remains frozen in three states with lawsuits but could apply in others within 30 days, potentially impacting babies whose parents are being deported and complicating citizenship based on state.
- Senator Markwayne Mullin said children born here to illegal immigrants should leave with their parents, while Trump called the ruling a 'monumental victory' ending a 'scam' and judicial overreach.
- Legal and political challenges continue, with some states expected to push back and the Supreme Court indicating some injunctions may remain necessary to ensure full relief.

Trump) under our Constitution and the second involves a directive facilitating religious worship by federal employees.

Shifting Currents in Environmental Law: SCOTUS Limits EPA Authority and Curbs NEPA Review
The U.S. Supreme Court’s 2025 term delivered two decisions reshaping environmental and administrative law. In City and County of San Francisco v. EPA, the court invalidated so-called "end-result" provisions in Clean Water Act (CWA) permits. In Seven County Infrastructure Coalition v. Eagle County, it reaffirmed broad agency discretion under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), limiting the scope of required environmental analysis.
Citizenship: Trump order blocked again
A federal judge in New Hampshire has opened "a new front in the battle" over President Trump's efforts to end birthright citizenship, said Adam Liptak in The New York Times. Two weeks ago Trump scored a major win when the Supreme Court curbed lower courts' power to block administration policies through nationwide injunctions. A Trump executive order ending the 157-year-old policy whereby any baby born in the U.S. becomes a citizen had been block…
On 27 June, the US Supreme Court handed down a decision restricting the ability of judges to suspend certain measures taken by the Trump administration. By limiting the scope of universal injunctions, the Court introduced a legal duality in the protection of fundamental rights, according to Jean-Claude Beaujour, doctor of law and lawyer. This decision also illustrates the debate between judicial authority and the expression of popular will.
