Supreme Court Weighs Power of Federal Judges in Battle Over Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Order

While the case currently before the high court does not directly address the constitutionality of Trump’s order, it could drastically curtail the ability of lower courts to issue nationwide injunctions—orders that have blocked the administration's policy across the country. . .
