Birthright citizenship explained as justices weigh blocks on Trump's order to end it

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : On his first day in office, Trump signed an executive order unilaterally declaring that only newborns whose parents have permanent legal status are "subject to the jurisdiction" of the U.S. and therefore eligible to be citizens.
48% : Sauer said that national injunctions force district judges to rush their "high stakes, low information decisions," encourage forum shopping, and prevent the "percolation of novel and difficult legal questions." "They operate asymmetrically, forcing the government to win everywhere, while the plaintiffs can win anywhere," said Sauer, who last year argued on behalf of Trump in a personal capacity to push for presidential immunity.
47% : "When a new president orders that because there's so much gun violence going on in the country, and he comes in and he says, 'I have the right to take away the guns from everyone,' and he sends out the military to seize everyone's guns.
43% : The rare May sitting of the court sets the stage for a decision by this summer on whether Trump can move forward with plans to limit U.S. citizenship only to children born on American soil to lawful permanent residents.
38% : Many of the administration's high-profile attempts to reshape the federal government, sharply curtail federal spending, transform immigration policy, and limit protections for LGBTQ people have been blocked by nationwide injunctions issued by district courts.
31% : I believe they're going to rule against Trump.
25% : Trump is seeking to dissolve judicial orders preventing mass federal layoffs, funding freezes, and expedited deportation protocols.
