“Barely two weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court limited the use of nationwide injunctions by federal judges, a federal judge once again blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order on birthright citizenship from going into effect nationwide. But if you think that sounds like the actions of a judge gone rogue, think again. In fact, this latest ruling against Trump’s birthright citizenship order actually represents a careful judicial adherence to what the Supreme Court said on June 27. Yes, the Court’s big ruling in Trump v. CASA did tell federal judges to lay off on nationwide injunctions. But the Court also told those same judges that the path remained clear for them to certify national class action lawsuits against Trump’s order in appropriate cases. And so, here we are.” (07/15/25)
