The Trump administration asks the Supreme Court to maintain the order aimed at ending the citizenship of the right of birth

The administration of the American president Donald Trump asks the Supreme Court to maintain its order for the citizenship of birth law declaring that children born of parents who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not American citizens.

The call, shared with the Associated Press on Saturday, sparked a process at the High Court of Washington, DC, which could lead to a final decision of the judges at the beginning of the summer to know if the restrictions of citizenship are constitutional.

The judges of the soil of land have so far prevenoned to take effect anywhere. The republican administration does not ask the court to let the restrictions enter into force before it regulates.

The petition of the Ministry of Justice was shared with lawyers for the parties contesting the order, but has not yet been placed at the Supreme Court.

Any decision on the opportunity to take the case is probably in months and the arguments would probably not take place before the end of winter or the beginning of spring.

“The decisions of the lower court have invalidated a policy of primordial importance for the president and his administration in a way that undermines our border security,” wrote General D. John Sauer in the petition. “These decisions giving, without legal justification, the privilege of American citizenship over hundreds of thousands of unskilled people.”

“ This decree is illegal, ” supports the lawyer

Cody Wofsy, an American lawyer for the Civil Liberté Union, represents children who are affected by Trump restrictions.

WOfy said the administration’s plan is clearly unconstitutional.

“This decree is illegal, a complete judgment, and no quantity of maneuver of the administration will change this. We will continue to ensure that no baby citizenship is never deleted by this cruel and insane order,” said Wofsy in an email.

Trump signed the decree in January on the first day of his second term in the White House. Critics have said that it would upset more than 125 years of understanding that the 14th amendment of the Constitution confers citizenship on all those born on American soil, to close exceptions for the children of foreign diplomats and those born of a foreign occupation force.

In a series of decisions, the lower courts have canceled the executive decree as unconstitutional, or probably, even after a decision of the Supreme Court at the end of June which limited the use of the judges of the national injunctions.

Although the senior court has slowed down the use of national injunctions, it has not excluded other judicial orders which could have effects on a national level, including in collective appeals and those put by states. The judges did not determine at that time if the underlying citizenship order is constitutional.

But each lower court that examined the question concluded that Trump’s order is probably violating the 14th amendment, which was intended to ensure that blacks, including former slaves, had citizenship.

California, case of the New Hampshire on appeal

The administration calls for two cases.

The American Court of Appeal for the 9th Circuit of San Francisco ruled in July that a group of states which continued on the order needed a national injunction to prevent the problems which would be caused by citizenship of the right of birth in force in certain states and not in others. In July, a federal judge of New Hampshire blocked the citizenship order in a collective appeal, including all the children who are affected.

Citizenship of the right of birth automatically makes anyone who was born in the United States to an American citizen, including children born of mothers who are illegally in the country, in the United States. But the administration affirms that the children of non-citizens are not “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States and therefore are not entitled to citizenship.
