Supreme Court ends nationwide injunctions in ruling on birthright citizenship cases
WASHINGTON, July 18 (ZFJ) — Nationwide injunctions exceed the authority of lower court judges, ruled the Supreme Court in three cases concerning birthright citizenship on June 27, 2025.
The Court struck down nationwide injunctions by a 6-3 vote in the cases Trump v. CASA, Inc. (24A884), Trump v. Washington (24A885), and Trump v. New Jersey (24A886).
The Court, which heard the cases consolidated on the emergency docket, only considered the question of nationwide injunctions and issued no ruling on the birthright citizenship order central to the lawsuits.
