US Supreme Court divided over judges' power in citizenship case

BBC NewsAleksandar Cuic, director of the Immigration Clinic at the School of Law, discussed the U.S. Supreme Court case weighing whether judges can issue nationwide injunctions, a key issue in President Trump’s push to end birthright citizenship. Cuic warned that curbing birthright citizenship could leave U.S.-born children of undocumented immigrants stateless. “There’s no guarantee their parents’ countries would take them back," he said.
