The U.S. Supreme Court recently issued a ruling related to birthright citizenship that has drawn sharp dissents from Justices Ketanji Brown Jackson and Sonia Sotomayor. Justice Jackson described the Court's decision as permitting the Executive Branch to violate the Constitution with respect to individuals who have not yet initiated legal action, calling it an "existential threat to the rule of law." Justice Sotomayor warned that "no right is safe in the new legal regime the Court creates," highlighting concerns that the ruling threatens birthright citizenship and could pave the way for future administrations to infringe on other constitutional rights, such as firearm ownership and religious freedoms. The dissenting opinions emphasize the 14th Amendment’s clear guarantee that anyone born in the United States is a citizen. Several members of Congress, including Representatives Nydia Velazquez, John Garamendi, Lois Frankel, Chuy Garcia, and others, have publicly reaffirmed their commitment to protecting birthright citizenship, describing the ruling as an attack on the nation's foundational principles. Justice Sotomayor further criticized the majority for enabling what she termed "lawless" executive behavior, particularly in the context of deportations without due process. The controversy reflects ongoing tensions over the scope of executive power and constitutional protections under the current Supreme Court majority.
