President Trump is counting on the Supreme Court to limit the ability of judges to put his policies on hold while they're being challenged.

President Donald Trump’s January 2025 executive order on birthright citizenship – stating that children born in the U.S. to parents who are not in the country legally, or who are not permanent residents, cannot receive citizenship – threatens to upend this precedent. The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments on the case on May 14, 2025.
