Casa Inc.<\/em>, the U.S. Supreme Court case that strikes at the heart of our democracy. At stake is not just the future of birthright citizenship, but the ability for federal courts to defend constitutional rights against presidential overreach.\r\n\r\nOn his first day in office, President Trump issued an executive order attempting to end the 14th Amendment\u2019s guarantee of citizenship to anyone born in the United States. Federal courts swiftly blocked the order via nationwide injunctions, recognizing it as a blatant violation of the Constitution. The Supreme Court allowed those injunctions to remain in place and will hear arguments on May 15.\r\n\r\nIn addition to defending birthright citizenship, Common Cause\u2019s brief focuses on the Trump administration\u2019s dangerous attempt to weaken federal courts by taking away their power to fully stop unconstitutional actions\u2014one of the most important tools courts use to protect people\u2019s rights and maintain the checks and balances that safeguard our democracy.\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Erkl\u00e4rung von Common Cause-Pr\u00e4sidentin und CEO Virginia Kase Solom\u00f3n<\/strong><\/p>\r\nThe United States has presidents, not kings, and our constitution cannot be overruled by executive order. Just because President Trump wants to get rid of birthright citizenship, does not give him the power to do so.\r\n\r\nIf Donald Trump can change what it means to be a citizen in this country for one group of Americans, he can do it for all Americans. No one is safe if this administration is allowed to railroad their way through our laws. That\u2019s why it is critical that the lower courts be able to stop unconstitutional acts nationwide before they do serious harm.\r\n\r\nThe 14<sup>th<\/sup> Amendment is one of the most fundamental promises of equality and fairness in our Constitution. Every single person born here is entitled to the same rights, protections, and opportunities, period.\u00a0One president cannot and will not change what it means to be an American for us or our families.\r\n\r\nTo read the Common Cause brief, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Trump-v-Casa-CC-Amicus-Brief-4-29-25.pdf\">klicken Sie hier<\/a>."}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_add_component","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_add_component":null},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_work","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_work":{"heading":"Work","manually_curate":false,"work":null}}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
