Supreme Court Gets Tougher
The U.S. Supreme Court issued several minor rulings Tuesday, allowing the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Department of Justice to tighten requirements on immigrants, especially those involved in criminal proceedings.
In a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court ruled that DHS can strip green card holders of their legal status if they travel abroad while facing criminal charges.
There were other rulings, mostly good, and mostly in favor of the Trump administration. As the Supreme Court concludes its current term, a ruling on birthright citizenship is expected later in the week. There could also be rulings on transgenders in sports and limits on how long election ballot counting can go on. Here’s more from Doug In Exile.
