Birthright Citizenship and Trans Athlete Ban. The Supreme Court's Decisions. Talking with Professor Luke Boso.
Concluding the term on Tuesday, the Supreme Court handed down several decisions. Two of which - birthright citizenship and Trans athlete participation in women’s sports - were eagerly anticipated. The Court affirmed birthright citizenship and cut back Trans athletes sports inclusion.
The Supreme Court closed out the term handing down two high profile decisions on birthright citizenship and Trans athletes. The former decision went in favor of maintaining it but nevertheless caused some partisan reaction especially toward Justice Amy Coney Barrett. Professor Boso also discusses the historic use of emergency actions from the Trump Administration to the Court, and the Court's willingness to agree to them.
