Supreme Court and 9th Circuit Review Trump's Controversial Executive Orders
The Supreme Court and 9th Circuit are reviewing Trump's executive orders on mass layoffs and birthright citizenship, with significant implications for federal authority and immigration.
Summary
The Trump administration is appealing to the Supreme Court to allow mass layoffs and restructuring of federal agencies, arguing against a lower court's injunction. Concurrently, the 9th Circuit is set to hear arguments on the constitutionality of Trump's executive order curtailing automatic birthright citizenship, which has been blocked by multiple federal judges. The administration claims the 14th Amendment does not apply to certain immigrants, while opponents argue it violates the citizenship clause. The Supreme Court's decision could impact both the layoffs and the citizenship directive, affecting thousands of jobs and over 150,000 newborns annually.
