If you're born on American soil, you're an American citizen. That is not a policy preference or political debate. It's the law of this country defended by generations of Americans who knew what was at stake when a government claimed the power to decide who belongs #TrumpvBarbara tinyurl.com/3h3kmyhw

This isn’t about immigration policy. It’s about whether the Constitution still means what it says. One case could erase 125 years of precedent and turn citizenship into a political weapon. We don’t get to stay silent.

Kagan dismantled the allegiance theory. Gorsuch — a conservative — asked hard skeptical questions of the government.
When you're losing Gorsuch, you're losing.
Decision later this term. Today was bad for Trump.

Built the whole case on stopping "birth tourism."
When pressed on the actual scale? Solicitor General Sauer said:
"No one knows for sure."
