Associate Dean Steven Schwinn discussed how the Supreme Court’s forthcoming decision on birthright citizenship could affect people without legal status in Illinois with WBEZ Chicago. Read an excerpt below.
“The U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling Friday curbs federal judges’ powers to issue nationwide injunctions — clearing the way for President Trump’s executive order to end birthright citizenship. The court’s decision did not address the constitutionality of the order, but it stops judges from being able to freeze the policy.”
