Washington, D.C. – Today, Rep. Mike Thompson (CA-04) released the following statement in response to the Supreme Court’s ruling narrowing the power of district court judges to issue nationwide injunctions blocking federal government policies, including the President’s order to end birthright citizenship:
“The Supreme Court's ruling today will fundamentally change how Americans can get immediate relief from unlawful and unjust actions. Everyday Americans should be afforded protections while cases go through our legal system.
“If you are born in America, you are an American. I know it, you know it, and our Constitution says it. That is why I joined my colleagues in sending amicus briefs throughout this process and I will continue to fight for the rights of all Americans.
