On Thursday, the Supreme Court announced that it would hear arguments in a few weeks during the executive order of President Trump ending the citizenship of the birth law.
The brief order of the judges was not signed and gave no reasoning, as it is typical in such emergency cases. But the move is a sign that the judges consider the question important enough for them to consider it immediately, rather than letting it take place in the lower courts.
The judges announced that they would refer any consideration of the government’s request to raise a national break on politics until they hear the oral arguments, that they set on May 15.
This means that the decree, which would put an end to the citizenship of the dawn for children of undocumented immigrants and foreign residents, will remain interrupted in each state while the court examines the case.
In three emergency requests, the Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to conclude that the lower courts had made an error by imposing prohibitions on the policy which extended beyond the parties involved in the dispute. He did not ask the court to weigh on the constitutionality of the decree, which was disputed shortly after his signature.
On the first day of President Trump’s power, he published the decree ending the citizenship of the right of birth, the guarantee that a person born in the United States is automatically citizen, for some children.
