A federal judge has issued a preliminary injunction against President Donald Trump's executive order aimed at ending birthright citizenship, preventing it from taking effect nationwide for the time being.It's a legal win for opponents of Trump's policy after a setback in the Supreme Court. Last month, justices limited the power of lower court judges to issue nationwide injunctions, saying those orders should only impact parties directly involved in the lawsuit. Now, lawyers are deploying a different legal strategy to try to get around that ruling. On Thursday, Judge Joseph LaPlante certified a class action lawsuit that includes all children who would be affected by changes to birthright citizenship. The ruling also includes a seven-day stay to allow for an appeal, and the Trump administration has vowed to continue fighting the decision.Tom Homan, the White House's border czar, criticized "radical judges" after the ruling Thursday. "They want to stop the Trump agenda. What they need to understand: The American people voted for this agenda," Homan said. Opponents of the policy argue that it violates the Constitution's 14th Amendment, which states, "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside." Thursday's ruling puts the dispute on a fast track back to the Supreme Court, which has yet to rule directly on the president's push to end birthright citizenship for those born to parents living in the U.S. illegally or temporarily.
