On May 15, the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments from President Donald Trump’s administration regarding the end of birthright citizenship.
SCOTUS will also defer any consideration to lift the nationwide stay until after oral arguments.
On his first day in office, Trump signed “Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship.”
The executive order is meant to clarify the 14th Amendment.
A few days later, federal Judge John C. Coughenour of the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington temporarily blocked the order.
Trump’s administration filed three emergency applications, asking SCOTUS “to find that lower courts had erred in imposing bans on the policy that extended beyond the parties involved in the litigation.”
However, the administration did not ask SCOTUS about the constitutionality of Trump’s executive order.
