Birthright Citizenship Case Turned Into Class Action Case

“An organization representing immigrants fighting President Donald Trump’s birthright citizenship order wasted little time seeking to recalibrate its legal strategy to block the president’s policy despite the high court’s restrictions on nationwide injunctions,” Politico reports.

“CASA Inc. is asking a federal judge in Maryland for an emergency block on Trump’s policy — which would deny citizenship to children of some immigrants born on U.S. soil — and said it has refiled its broader lawsuit as a class action case.”

“Class action lawsuits are one of the ways that the Supreme Court explicitly indicated Friday were permissible to broadly block a federal government policy.”
