NextImg:A Judge Reignited the Standoff Over Birthright Citizenship

A federal judge in New Hampshire blocked the Trump administration from enforcing its executive order ending birthright citizenship. The move, according to the judge, applied to all babies nationwide, including children of undocumented parents who could have been denied citizenship under the order.

Last month, the Supreme Court limited the ability of judges to block executive branch policies nationwide. But in this instance, Judge Joseph Laplante, a George W. Bush appointee, was able to pause President Trump’s order by certifying a lawsuit against it as a class-action — a maneuver that had been suggested by the justices as an alternative to nationwide injunctions. He also paused his order for seven days, allowing time for an appeal.

Trump has fought to end birthright citizenship, which is laid out in the Constitution. Judges have consistently rejected the idea, and Judge Laplante wrote in his order that the plaintiffs would likely succeed in arguing that Trump’s order was unconstitutional.
