A federal court in New Hampshire has blocked President Donald Trump’s Executive Order restricting birthright citizenship and certified a nationwide class that protects the citizenship rights of all children born on U S soil.
Judge Joseph LaPlante made the announcement Thursday July 10, following a hearing and added that a written order will follow, according to the Associated Press.
The judge’s order will also include a seven-day stay to allow for appeal.
The ruling stems from a nationwide class-action lawsuit filed June 27, immediately after a Supreme Court ruling that potentially opened the door for parties enforcement of the executive order.
