Paula Reid: This Is a Victory for the Trump Admin, Justices Are Limiting the Power That Any One Judge Has to Block His Policies

EXCERPT:

REID: “That’s exactly right. This is a victory for the Trump Administration, because here the justices are limiting the power that any one judge has in this country to block one of his policies while the courts assess whether that policy is constitutional. And here they did not weigh in on whether Trump has the constitutional authority to end or limit birthright citizenship. This is a promise he made on the campaign trail to end a right that has been recognized for over a century where, if you are born here, you are U.S. citizen. He did this through executive action and they did not weigh in on whether that was legal. They just said, look, one judge can’t block that for the whole country while we decide and we expect, and the Attorney General signaled this earlier, that that constitutional question will likely come back before the justices next term. So, maybe a year from now I might be sitting here telling you what they decided.”
