Securing the border just became more important than ever
President Donald Trump suffered a defeat Tuesday when a 6-3 majority of the Supreme Court held that his executive order denying birthright citizenship to the children of illegal immigrants and certain temporary visa holders was contrary to federal law. Roberts traces the history of birthright citizenship from English common law to the colonies, through the Constitution, and up to its rejection by the Supreme Court in Dred Scott v. Sandford.Advertisement The Reconstruction-era Congress explicitly sought to reject Dred Scott, first by passing the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and then by passing the 14th Amendment the same year.
