Hakeem Jeffries: The Supreme Court Limiting Judges’ Ability to Block Presidential Policies Was a ‘Reckless Decision’
RUSH EXCERPT:
JEFFRIES: "Well, it was an unfortunate decision from a procedural standpoint as it relates to what should have been a very clear case if there is any instance where nationwide injunctions are appropriate it would be in a manner like what we’ve just experienced in terms of birth right citizenship, which is clearly a part of the Constitution. If you are born as a child in the United States of America, you are a citizen. So it was a procedural setback that was quite unfortunate, and it was a reckless decision, in my view. However, in terms of the fight judicially to protect birthright citizenship, that remains alive and well, and we’re just going to have to intensify our efforts now in district court after district court or to get a class-action certified on behalf of people who may be adversely impacted."
