法官裁定暂停特朗普取消出生公民权的命令 联邦法官重新开启了就特朗普总统试图拒绝给予无证移民子女公民身份问题的法律对抗。 周四,一位联邦法官裁定,阻止特朗普政府执行一项有争议的行政命令,该命令旨在取消在美出生即获得公民身份的权利(即“出生公民权”)。这一裁决重新点燃了自特朗普第二任期开始以来的法律僵局。 新罕布什尔州联邦地区法院法官约瑟夫·N·拉普兰特(Joseph N. Laplante)在庭上作出裁决,允许此案以集体诉讼的形式继续进行,并将裁定适用于全国范围内所有由无证移民父母所生的婴儿。在最高法院近期限制全国性禁令的背景下,集体诉讼已成为目前少数几种能够在全国范围内阻止总统政策的法律途径之一。 特朗普政府长期试图终结这一美国宪法长期赋予的权利,即无论父母移民身份如何,在美国出生的孩子都自动获得公民身份。拉普兰特法官的命令意味着,这项政策将进入新一轮的法律诉讼与上诉程序。 拉普兰特是由前总统乔治·W·布什任命的,他表示将在当天稍晚发布书面裁定。同时,他也宣布将该裁决暂缓七天,以便联邦政府有时间提出上诉。
Judge Blocks Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Order in Class-Action Challenge The federal judge reignited the legal standoff over President Trump’s efforts to deny citizenship to children born to undocumented parents. A federal judge on Thursday blocked the Trump administration from enforcing a contentious executive order ending birthright citizenship, reigniting a legal standoff that has been underway since the beginning of President Trump’s second term. Ruling from the bench, Judge Joseph N. Laplante of the U.S. District Court for the District of New Hampshire also allowed the case to proceed as a class action, applying his order nationwide to babies born to undocumented parents. After a recent Supreme Court decision limiting nationwide injunctions, lawsuits structured as class actions are effectively the only ones that can halt the president’s policies across broad sections of the country. The Trump administration has fought to end the longstanding custom that people born in the United States are automatically citizens, regardless of their parents’ immigration status. Judge Laplante’s order ensures a new round of litigation and appeals. The judge, an appointee of President George W. Bush, said he would issue a written order later in the day. He also stayed his order for seven days, allowing time for an appeal.
