The Trump administration is asking the Supreme Court to allow restrictions on birthright citizenship to partly take effect while legal fights play out. Birthright citizenship refers to the principle that anyone born on U.S. soil, regardless of the immigration status of their parents, automatically acquires U.S. citizenship. This is established under the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, specifically in the Citizenship Clause, which states: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside." Do you agree with the concept of birthright citizenship?

The Trump administration filed emergency applications Thursday, asking the Supreme Court to limit court orders blocking an executive order that denies citizenship to children born in the U.S. to parents in the country illegally. The order is currently blocked nationwide, with three federal appeals courts rejecting the administration's pleas. The Justice Department argues that individual judges shouldn't have the power to issue nationwide rulings. Several states and groups have sued, claiming the order violates the 14th Amendment's birthright citizenship guarantee. What is your opinion on judges issuing nationwide rulings in cases like this? Judges should have the power to issue nationwide rulings it it's a constitutional issue, like this one
